BaghdadiLaw’s experience in trademark cancellation and invalidation in Syria
BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to trademark cancellation and invalidity, with specialised knowledge of connecting challenge grounds to use, earlier rights and the scope of the disputed registration. A Syrian trademark challenge must identify why the registration should cease or should never have been granted. Earlier rights, lack of distinctiveness, non-use and misleading use are different grounds with different evidence; cancellation is not simply another name for opposition.
Articles 7–9 of historical Law 8/2007 distinguish challenges to registration, cancellation for non-use and loss of rights through generic or misleading use. Article 8 addresses genuine use, authorised use and proof by the owner. These are not interchangeable grounds; current time conditions and any amendments must be checked before filing. Absence from one shop or website does not establish absence of genuine use across the relevant market. Examine dated invoices, packaging, licensing and distribution records for the registered goods.
We agree the work your matter needs: Consider a ground-specific challenge, a negotiated limitation of goods or coexistence where appropriate. An existing opposition or infringement case may require coordination of the requested relief. The deliverable is agreed for your file: The consultation can deliver a grounds-and-evidence assessment, a register chronology and a proposed response or challenge outline.

Before requesting advice on trademark cancellation and invalidation in Syria
What evidence matters when seeking cancellation of a Syrian trademark?+
Choose the legal ground first. Earlier-right claims need priority and market evidence; non-use allegations require attention to the relevant goods, period and the owner’s use evidence or justification. Obtain the register history before deciding what relief and procedure are appropriate.
Is cancellation the same as opposing a pending application?+
No. The registration stage and chosen ground change the procedural question; identify whether an application or an existing registration is being challenged.
Can licensed use matter in a non-use case?+
The historical law recognises authorised use in its use framework. The licence, goods and evidence of actual use must be examined.
