The Vienna Agreement enters into force in the Republic of Mozambique today, October 13, 2023. This happens as a result of the country having formally deposited its instrument of accession to the Vienna Agreement on July 13, 2023.
Mozambique has opted to adhere to the Vienna Agreement for the International Classification of Figurative Elements of Trademarks. Originally concluded in Vienna on June 12, 1973, and modified on October 1, 1985, the Agreement is an internationally recognized framework for classifying figurative elements of trade marks. The Government of Mozambique anticipates several significant benefits from joining the Vienna Agreement, among these it is expected to substantially ease the registration process of figurative marks in the country.
