Sakpatenti joined the Madrid Goods and Services Manager (MGS), a program administered by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). By means of this program the Georgian users, filing international applications, are given an opportunity to use the Georgian interface and make a list of goods and/or services in the Georgian language, which will simplify for them the procedure of extension of trademarks to the member states of the “Protocol Relating to the Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks”.
It is noteworthy that the above-mentioned program also allows users to translate the list of goods and/or services electronically into 19 languages, already including the Georgian language.
The Madrid System is an international tool for protection of trademarks, which enables an applicant by means of filing a single application in a single language to protect a trademark in 119 member states of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
Georgia is a member of the “Protocol Relating to the Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks” from 1998.
