What we do
At Concord IP, we provide a complete range of intellectual property rights services to meet the growing demands of businesses and entrepreneurs in the UAE and abroad. Our services include:
01.
Trademark Registration
We offer Trademark Registration services, assisting clients through the full cycle of registration with the UAE Ministry of Economy, including initial search, filing, monitoring, renewals, and enforcement. Our team ensures your brand is uniquely protected and legally recognized.
Trademark registration in the UAE involves multiple stages. We start with a comprehensive search to determine whether your proposed mark is registrable, ensuring it doesn’t conflict with existing trademarks. Then we file the application with the UAE Ministry of Economy and handle all communications, including opposition responses, publication, and issuance of the final certificate.
Trademarks in the UAE are valid for ten years, renewable upon payment of additional fees. A registered trademark ensures exclusive rights to use your brand within specific classes covering goods and services. Our legal team offers complete support in case of infringements, including enforcement actions and litigation support.
02.
Business Setup in UAE Mainland & Free Zones
Establishing a business in the UAE provides investors with strategic advantages such as access to international markets, investor-friendly policies, and a robust legal framework. At Concord IP, we offer comprehensive support for setting up companies across both Mainland and Free Zones in the UAE, ensuring compliance, efficiency, and peace of mind throughout the entire process.
Mainland companies are licensed by the Department of Economic Development (DED) and allow you to operate anywhere within the UAE and internationally. They are ideal for businesses that want to engage in direct trade with the local market or government entities.
On the other hand, Free Zones offer benefits such as 100% foreign ownership, full repatriation of profits and capital, tax exemptions, and simplified procedures. They are best suited for international trade, e-commerce, consultancy, and service-based businesses that don’t need to operate directly in the local market.
Our team handles everything from selecting the right jurisdiction, obtaining initial approvals, preparing legal documents, coordinating with authorities, to completing the registration and licensing process. With Concord IP by your side, launching your business in the UAE becomes a smooth and structured journey, tailored to your industry, goals, and vision.
03.
Patent Registration
In the field of Patent Registration, we assist inventors and companies in preparing, filing, and prosecuting patent applications, as well as maintaining and licensing patent rights. We ensure your technological innovations are protected under the relevant intellectual property laws.
Our patent services include drafting, filing, and prosecution of patent applications in the UAE and abroad. We guide inventors through the technical and legal complexities of patenting, ensuring inventions are protected for a period of up to 20 years.
We also support international patent protection through cooperation with regional and international patent systems, such as the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT).
04.
Design Registration
is available for clients looking to protect the appearance of their products or packaging. We help register industrial designs, ensuring the uniqueness of your brand identity remains exclusive and legally protected.
We offer legal protection for your product’s appearance, structure, and design. Registering your industrial design ensures that competitors cannot replicate the unique shape or configuration of your goods.
Our team assists in filing applications, responding to examiner objections, and enforcing your rights through litigation or administrative actions. With proper design registration, your brand’s aesthetic value becomes a powerful competitive advantage.
05.
Copyright Registration
Our Copyright Registration service includes consultation, documentation, filing with national and international copyright offices, and monitoring for infringement. We help safeguard your creative works—whether written, digital, visual, or audio.
In the UAE, copyright protection applies to original works including literature, software, music, designs, and more. Registration provides evidence of ownership and supports legal enforcement in case of infringement.
Concord IP assists in registering your copyright through the UAE Ministry of Economy, Dubai Copyright Office (INTEROCO), or international bodies like the U.S. Copyright Office. We handle everything from document preparation and filing to communication with official authorities, ensuring your intellectual work is protected both locally and internationally.
06.
International Trademark Protection
Expanding your brand across borders requires more than just business strategy — it demands strong legal protection. At Concord IP, we specialize in International Trademark Protection, offering tailored registration services across key global regions, including the Middle East, Europe, and Africa.
Through international frameworks such as the Madrid Protocol and direct national filings, we help secure your trademark in multiple jurisdictions efficiently and cost-effectively. Our team conducts thorough trademark searches, prepares and files applications, manages office actions, and ensures ongoing compliance with each country’s legal requirements.
Whether you’re launching your brand in new markets or aiming to safeguard it against global infringement, our services ensure that your intellectual property is fully protected across diverse legal systems. With Concord IP, you gain not only legal coverage but also the strategic support necessary to grow your business with confidence on an international scale.
07.
Offshore Companies
Our expertise also extends to Offshore Company Formation, which offers business owners 100% foreign ownership, full tax exemptions, and privacy benefits. We handle every step, from selecting the right jurisdiction to documentation and setup.
Offshore companies in the UAE are ideal for entrepreneurs looking for tax efficiency, privacy, and full foreign ownership. These entities can invest in real estate, hold intellectual property rights, open bank accounts, and operate internationally with minimal bureaucracy.
Advantages of forming a UAE offshore company include:
– 100% tax exemption
– Full foreign ownership without a local sponsor
– No annual audit requirement
– No physical office requirement
– Ability to own property and hold assets
– High level of privacy and confidentiality
– No minimum capital requirement
– Access to UAE’s network of double tax treaties
We assist with choosing the right offshore jurisdiction (such as Jebel Ali Free Zone or Ras Al Khaimah), preparing incorporation documents, and managing regulatory compliance.
08.
Pro Services
We also provide PRO and Government Liaison Services. From licensing and visa applications to authentication of documents, our team acts as your representative in all interactions with UAE government departments, ensuring all procedures are completed efficiently and compliantly.
Our PRO services cover a wide range of government liaison tasks essential for business operation in the UAE. These include:
We help amend or renew commercial licenses with the Department of Economic Development and Ministry of Economy, cancel licenses when necessary, and register your company with the Ministry of Labour. Our team processes work permits and residency visa applications, including renewals, amendments, and cancellations.
We also manage visa arrangements (e.g., visit and mission visas), handle document legalization at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Justice, and provide certified Arabic translation services through licensed legal translators.
We support with pre-approval of documents at the Notary Public, attend official signings with you, and assist in corporate bank account openings, ensuring a smooth setup of your company’s legal and financial operations.
