Poland trademark search and UPRP filing

A Poland trademark search checks the UPRP register for similar earlier marks before you file a national Polish application. The UPRP charges about 450 PLN for an electronic application in one class plus 120 PLN per additional class as of 2026.

From filing to registration at UPRP
-
1
Filing
Electronic application to the Patent Office of the Republic of Poland.
-
2
Formal and absolute grounds check
The UPRP checks formalities and absolute grounds such as descriptiveness.
-
3
Publication
The application is published; earlier right owners have 3 months to oppose.
-
4
Decision
Without opposition, the right of protection is granted, typically about 6 months after filing.
Rules worth knowing before you file
- Like the EUIPO, the UPRP relies on opposition by earlier right owners rather than refusing conflicts itself, which makes monitoring worthwhile.
- Applicants from outside the EEA must act through a Polish patent attorney.
- A Polish mark covers Poland only; an EU trademark covers Poland and the other member states.
How Trademarking handles a UPRP filing
-
Step 1
We search UPRP records and the other offices you choose for identical and similar marks, and show a registration likelihood with the closest conflicts and their source.
-
Step 2
We map what you sell to Nice classes and suggest wording from the office lists, which keeps you clear of surcharges and objections. See the class guide.
-
Step 3
We prepare the UPRP application: applicant details, mark type, classes and the goods and services text.
-
Step 4
Applicants from outside the EEA must act through a Polish patent attorney. In that case the filing goes through a partner attorney admitted before UPRP, and you still own the application.
-
Step 5
After filing, deadlines, office actions, publication and the opposition window appear in your portfolio, and trademark monitoring alerts you to similar new filings.
Frequently asked questions

- Do I need a Polish patent attorney?
- Only if you are from outside the EEA. EEA applicants can file directly.
- How long does protection last in Poland?
- 10 years from filing, renewable for further 10 year periods.
