MADRID PROTOCOL
Te United States is also a favourite country for Turkish companies, and on balance, they prefer to use the Madrid System for US applications. Besides the all advantages of the system, it is also possible to register the trademark with intent to use in the US via the Madrid System. Terefore, it becomes the best option for trademark owners who still have not used the trademark mark but intend to.
As long as the number of contracting parties grows, the demand for the Madrid system by Turkish applicants will increase too. At the same time, there are improvements to the regulations in the pipeline that will further enhance the system.
