Overview

Madrid can simplify filing. It does not remove local judgement.

The Madrid System can centralise parts of the international application process, but suitability depends on the base right, designations, specification and portfolio plans.

Each designated jurisdiction still applies its own law and examination. We plan the central route while coordinating local responses where they become necessary.
