The Register of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) is considered as the official register of international registrations. Entries in the above register which are contrary to the entries into the Trade Marks Register kept by the Hellenic Industrial Property Organization (Organismos Biomixanikis Idioktisias (O.B.I.)) are considered to prevail against the latter.<\/p>\n<p>Any Greek citizen or resident in Greece or a company with actual and permanent industrial or commercial establishment in Greece, has the right to submit to the Hellenic Industrial Property Organisation (O.B.I.) an application for the registration of an International Trade Mark, after having previously filed the same trade mark as a national one.<\/p>\n<p>For this filing the following are required:<\/p>\n<p>An \u039c\u039c2(\u0395) Application in one copy bearing the original seal\/signature of the depositor or of the assignee, printed, 1 page per sheet (available at the website of the Organization)<\/p>\n<p>A copy of the national trade mark.<\/p>\n<p>Submission by the means of a USB or other suitable electronic storage medium of the:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>application in an electronic format (preferably PDF editable),<\/li>\n<li>the trade mark\u2019s logo in a .jpg or .jpeg format,<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>A 15 Euros fee for the forwarding of the application to the International Office of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) at Geneva.<\/p>\n<p>Instructions for completing the \u039c\u039c2(\u0395) application<\/p>\n<p>The proprietor of the trade mark has the right to fil the application himself. The signing of the application by a lawyer is optional and in this case a documentation of power of attorney is not required. In the case where the application concerning an international trade mark is submitted within a time \u2013 period of six (6) months from the date of filing the national mark, the depositor has the right to claim priority. The application consists of 13 pages, and it is completed either in English or in French. On the 9<sup>th<\/sup> page of the application there is a catalogue of selecting destination countries, where the applicant fills in the countries that he wishes so. On the 12<sup>th<\/sup> page, the applicant has recourse to the link <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wipo.int\/madrid\/en\/fees\/calculator.jsp\">www.wipo.int\/madrid\/en\/fees\/calculator.jsp<\/a> in order to identify which countries have established individual fees or complementary fees, as well as the costs per class for these countries. Depending on the country\/countries of destination, the system automatically calculates the costs per country, as well as the base fee. The calculation of the fees required takes place as follows: In the field entitled as \u201cfee calculator\u201d we fill in the country or countries of destination, the class or the classes of goods\/services, whether the trade mark is black and white or coloured, and it automatically calculates in detail all the costs per country, as well as the base fee for filing. The detail result of the costs (in Swiss Francs CHF) is filled in the page 12 of the application and the applicant shall pay the total amount to the International Office, selecting respectively one of the methods indicated in the application form on page 13. \u00a0The depositors of international trade marks applications, the new proprietors of an international trademark who submit an application for its modification, as well as the new assigned attorneys &#8211; at \u2013 law who are appointed in order to replace the older ones, by the means of their respective applications to WIPO, shall mention both the e-mails of the depositor or of the proprietor of the trade mark and that of his assigned attorney &#8211; at \u2013 law.<\/p>\n<p>Search concerning International Trade marks: The search of international trademarks is made via the website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www3.wipo.int\/madrid\/monitor\/en\/\">https:\/\/www3.wipo.int\/madrid\/monitor\/en\/<\/a>.
