Common questions
How long does trademark registration take in Malaysia?
About 12 to 18 months from filing to registration — including formality examination, a two-month publication/opposition window, and, if unopposed, issuance of the certificate. Registration lasts 10 years from the filing date and is renewable.
Can I register my trademark internationally from Malaysia?
Yes — the Trademarks Act 2019 gave Malaysia access to the Madrid Protocol, letting a Malaysian trademark application or registration be extended to other member countries through a single WIPO filing.
Do I need a Malaysian agent if I'm filing from outside Petaling Jaya, or from overseas?
A foreign applicant with no address or place of business in Malaysia must appoint a registered Malaysian trademark agent — that's how MyIPO delivers office actions and deadlines. Applicants based in Malaysia can file directly.
