Amend the Address of the Trademark Owner

The Service for Updating the Trademark Owner’s Address is provided by the Saudi Authority for Intellectual Property (SAIP) and enables the trademark owner to modify or update their officially registered address with the Authority. This service ensures the accuracy and validity of information associated with the trademark and helps protect the owner’s legal rights while guaranteeing official communication in accordance with Saudi regulations. The service is executed fully electronically through the Authority’s platform, providing fast and reliable updates for all owner-related address data.

The process involves logging into the trademark portal, selecting the trademark data update service, submitting a request that includes the new address details along with supporting documents such as a copy of the national ID or passport and proof of the new address. An invoice for payment is then issued, and after payment confirmation and initial verification, the data is officially updated. A completion notification is sent, and the trademark record is centrally updated.

The Service for Updating the Trademark Owner’s Address typically takes a relatively short time compared to services related to trademark registration, ownership transfer, or new licensing, as it is a data update rather than a new registration or complex procedure. The processing duration usually ranges from 1 to 3 business days via the electronic platform, provided the application is complete, fees are paid, and there are no technical or document deficiencies.
