Comments, exceptions

Use of trademarks in the Republic of Yemen is not compulsory for filing applications nor for maintaining trademark registrations in force. However, a trademark is vulnerable to cancellation upon the request of any interested party who can establish that the trademark was not actually used during the five years immediately preceding the application for cancellation or that there was no bona fide of using the trademark on the goods in respect of which the trademark was registered. It is noteworthy that trademark rights are acquired in the Republic of Yemen through registration and that a trademark becomes invincible if the registered proprietor has used it in the country for five years continuously.
