Trade Marks Rules (Revised 2020)

The Government of the Virgin Islands issued these revised Trade Marks Rules to consolidate procedural requirements for trademark registration under the Trade Marks Act. The Rules mandate standardized application forms, electronic filing options, and strict compliance timelines for specifications, priority claims, and Registrar notices. They establish comprehensive procedures for opposition, revocation, invalidation, classification under the Nice Agreement, and the registration of defensive, certification, and collective marks.
