What We'll Need to File Your Trademark Application in Brazil

Filing a trademark in Brazil requires very little from you. Here is what we need.

Power of Attorney (POA)

The Power of Attorney authorizes us to act on your behalf at INPI. No notarization or legalization required — sign and return by email.

Declaration of Business Activity

This short document describes the goods and services your trademark will cover. We prepare a draft for you to review and sign. Returned by email.

Legalisation of Documents

Not required. All documents can be submitted digitally.

Payment of Fees

INPI charges a filing fee at the time of application and a grant fee once the trademark is approved. We include both in our quotation.

Additional Documents

Trademarks with non-Latin characters require a transliteration. Figurative marks may need additional description. We advise you on what applies to your specific application.

Summary

  • Power of Attorney (POA): Authorizes us to represent you; no notarization or legalization required.
  • Declaration of Business Activity: Describes your goods and services; can be submitted by email.
  • Legalisation: Not required for Brazil; digital copies are accepted.
  • Payment of Fees: Application and final registration fees are mandatory.
  • Additional Documents: May be needed for special cases such as non-Latin characters or unique designs.

That is everything. Send us the trademark, the class, and the applicant details — we handle the rest.
