Well Known Trademarks in Mongolia

In case of a dispute in connection to the unfair competition and conflict of interests of your trademark, the trademark owner is entitled to apply a request for declaration of your mark as well-known in Mongolia him/herself or through representation of an authorized intellectual property agent to the Dispute Settlement Committee of the Intellectual Property Office of Mongolia.

For this purpose, the trademark owner shall file an application only in relation to one trademark and such request shall include, aside from providing basic personal and business information on the applicant and/or the authorized intellectual property agent, following information:

  • Description of the trademark for the declaration as well-known mark;
  • The name list of the well-known trademark product and services;                    
  • The date of the trademark declaration as well-known;
  • The status of the intellectual property rights of that particular trademark in Mongolia;
  • The justification/reasons for declaration of trademark as well-known mark along with their proofs and evidences.

Furthermore, the Intellectual property office of Mongolia is responsible for the public distribution of the well-known marks, yet unfortunately according to the unofficial statement, no such applications for declaration of trademark as well-known have been submitted and hence there is no list of the well-known marks in Mongolia as of today.
