Can I do trademark registration by myself?

If you are a resident of the country you can register a trademark by yourself in the National Trademark Office. However, the process is very complicated and without appropriate assistance, it is very unlikely to fill out all documents and go through the whole procedure successfully.Because of this, it is better to hire a professional attorney, who is able to simplify the process of registration for you and save your time and money.

There is a slightly different situation with international registration. Foreign residents have no direct access to the National Trademark Offices in other countries. Due to this if you wish to file for a trademark somewhere outside of your country of residence, you have to hire a professional local attorney to represent your interests there.

There is only one exception WIPO | Madrid – The International Trademark System. However, the system is available only for countries-members (121 countries of the world) and only for residents of these countries, provides very limited protection and requires a considerable amount of time and effort for registration.

First, you apply for a t+ in your country of residence and wait until you obtain a trademark there, after, using WIPO, you file the trademark in other countries through your National Trademark Office and wait for registering your mark there.

However, an experienced attorney is always able to simplify the process of registration, increase the chances and the speed of registration and save your time and money. If you're looking for an affordable  IP attorneys in Vietnam, check out ANTLawyers.vn.
