Madrid Union

Read a random definition: special-facts rule

A quick definition of Madrid Union:

The Madrid Union is a system for registering trademarks internationally. It was established by a treaty called the Madrid Agreement in 1890. Under this system, a trademark registered in one country that is also registered with the World Intellectual Property Organization receives equal protection in all countries that are part of the treaty. This helps businesses protect their trademarks in multiple countries without having to register them separately in each country. The United States joined the Madrid Union in 2002.

A more thorough explanation:

The Madrid Union is a system for the international registration of trademarks established by the Madrid Agreement, which was signed in 1890. The agreement's official name is the Madrid Arrangement Concerning the International Registration of Marks. It allows a trademark registered in a treaty nation to receive equal protection in all signatory nations.

For example, if a company registers its trademark in the United States and also registers it with the World Intellectual Property Organization, it will receive the same level of protection in all other countries that are part of the Madrid Union.

The United States ratified the treaty in 2002, which means that American companies can take advantage of the Madrid Union system to protect their trademarks in other countries.

The Madrid Union is an important tool for businesses that operate internationally, as it simplifies the process of registering and protecting trademarks in multiple countries.
