Trademark File Reconstruction Notice


The Department of Industry, Government of Nepal, issued an important notice on 1 December 2025 concerning all pending and published trademark applications in light of the recent destruction of physical files caused by the nationwide incidents of unrest on September 9, 2025. The notice highlights the following two major points:

1. All applicants with pending or incomplete applications and documents are required to resubmit their trademark applications together with all supporting documents within ninety (90) days from the date of publication of this notice making March 1, 2026 as the final submission deadline. Any application that has remained pending for more than seven (7) years and is not resubmitted within the above 90-day period shall be automatically cancelled.

2. Applicants whose trademarks have been published in the Industrial Property Bulletin without opposition must submit the requisite documents for issuance and collection of the registration certificate within six (6) months from the date of publication of this notice making June 1, 2026 as the final submission deadline. Failure to submit the documentation required for certificate issuance within this six-month period will result in the cancellation of the application.
