Why Trademark Protection Is Essential in Switzerland

Trademark protection grants your business exclusive legal rights over your brand identity. In Switzerland, this includes names, logos, product designs, packaging, slogans, and more. Once registered through the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property (IPI), your trademark becomes a protected commercial asset—preventing unauthorized use and securing your reputation.

Switzerland is a global hub for finance, technology, and luxury goods—sectors that thrive on brand integrity. Registering your trademark in Switzerland helps you:

✅ Prevent misuse or counterfeit of your brand

✅ Build investor and consumer trust

✅ Add commercial value (for sale, licensing, or M&A)

✅ Gain access to legal recourse in civil court

✅ Leverage the Madrid Protocol for international protection

Trademarks are valid for 10 years and renewable indefinitely. The Swiss IPI register allows you to check trademark availability before filing.

Unregistered brands are vulnerable to infringement and legal uncertainty.

● The Swiss Trademark Protection Act (MSchG)

●The Trademark Ordinance (MSchV)
