Well-known mark opposition
A well-known-mark opposition requires evidence of the applicable reputation and its legally relevant scope.
Türkiye: practical decision and evidence
A well-known-mark opposition requires evidence of the applicable reputation and its legally relevant scope. Organise recognition, market presence, sales and publicity records by date and territory. Follower counts or an assertion of fame alone do not establish the ground.
Worked file: a business relies on social followers to allege broad reputation. Add dated sales, territory, advertising exposure and recognition materials relevant to the legal period. Link the claimed reputation to the goods and sign; do not treat every modern metric as proof of the required historical reputation.
Bad-faith trademark opposition
For bad faith, build a chronology of prior relations, access to the sign, earlier dealings and the disputed filing. Explain what the evidence supports. Mere dislike of a competitor or similarity without context does not prove bad faith.
Opposition arguments and evidence
An opposition needs the application number, legal grounds, reasoned arguments and indexed evidence. Verify the official filing procedure, payment and receipt before the deadline. Sending documents to a consultant or by ordinary email is not necessarily a valid official opposition.
Other earlier rights
Earlier rights can include names, trade names, copyright or relevant unregistered signs under the applicable ground. Preserve evidence showing entitlement and acquisition before the challenged filing. An unverified ownership assertion is not enough.
Official filing and support
This guidance concerns Turkish rights unless a section expressly names another jurisdiction. Kayra can coordinate research, document preparation and follow-up. Registration, opposition and grant decisions belong to the competent office. Verify any required representative’s registration and authority before appointing them; court proceedings require appropriately qualified legal representation. The enquiry form requests consultancy, and does not itself file an official application.
