Register your Trade Mark with our legal team

Our fixed-fee Trade Mark Headstart Packages start at $900 + GST. This includes an application to register your trade mark, phone consultations with a Sprintlaw lawyer, and IPONZ fees associated with registering your trademark.

A trade mark is a form of intellectual property protection in New Zealand. It lets you register your rights to a recognisable sign, design or expression of your brand. You can apply for a trade mark for your business name, logo or even a catchphrase.

If you want to protect the name of your brand, product or service, it’s a good idea to think about registering a trade mark as early as possible. A successful trade mark application gives you the exclusive right to use that brand name, logo or catchphrase for 10 years in New Zealand. Your registered trade mark can also be renewed every 10 years.

This means you can enforce that right against anyone else who uses your trade mark in New Zealand for those goods or services, even if they’re based overseas.

Submit an enquiry on this page or click 'Get started'. One of our legal consultants will review it within 1 business day and get in touch to understand what you need.

Your consultant will then email you a fixed-fee quote setting out the cost, scope and timing. If you're happy with it, you can accept the quote and sign our engagement letter online.

Once you've accepted, one of our Australian-qualified lawyers will work with you to complete your project. They'll contact you by email or phone if they need anything.

We work online, so we can help wherever you are in New Zealand. Our team works remotely, mainly from Australia.

Your work is done by our Australian-qualified lawyers, who hold Australian practising certificates and specialise in business law. None of them are New Zealand lawyers or hold a New Zealand practising certificate.
