3. Question

10. Please confirm whether or not services are a protectable subject matter in your trademark law. Please confirm if signs, such as trade names, are protectable. Please describe if elements such as sound, perfumes and containers are protectable.

4. Answer

The 1992 Trademarks Law provides for protection of services-related trademarks in the same conditions of the protection of goods-related trademarks. The sign is protected if it constitutes a trademark as explained in the answer to question no. 9. The sound constitutes an element of the trademark if it accompanies the trademark.
