Update Your Trademark Details with INPI Brazil

Ensure your brand is fully protected by keeping your official INPI Brazil trademark records accurate and up to date.

1. Service Overview

When your company undergoes changes—such as name updates, address changes, mergers, or restructuring—it is essential to record the updated information with the Brazilian National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI). Brazil requires formal recordal for ownership, legal entity status, and address changes. Failure to update may lead to missed notices, enforcement issues, or delays with renewals and oppositions. Our service ensures that all changes are properly filed and recorded according to INPI requirements.

2. Why Updating Your Trademark Details in Brazil is Essential

  • ✅ Legal Validity: Correct ownership and address information is required for enforcement before Brazilian courts.
  • ✅ Official Communications: INPI issues all notifications electronically, and outdated data may cause missed deadlines.
  • ✅ Assignment & License Recordal: Updated ownership information is necessary to register assignments or licensing agreements.
  • ✅ Compliance for Renewals: Renewal applications require accurate owner data and may be invalid if information is outdated.

Is there a difference between a Change of Name and an Assignment in Brazil?
Yes. A Change of Name occurs when the legal entity remains the same but the name changes. An Assignment is a transfer of ownership to a different legal entity and has different requirements and fees.
Do I need to update my trademark certificate after a change?
INPI does not automatically issue new certificates for changes. The electronic record is updated, which serves as the official record. You can request a certified copy reflecting the changes.
What are the consequences of not updating my information with INPI?
Failure to update can result in missed official communications, inability to enforce your rights, and complications with future transactions or renewals.
Are documents in English accepted by INPI?
No, all documents must be submitted in Portuguese or accompanied by a certified Portuguese translation.
