What is a Trademark License?

A Trademark License Agreement is essential when a trademark owner wishes to permit another party to use their trademark(s) in the UAE market. This document is particularly crucial given the UAE's strict trademark protection regime under Federal Law No. 36 of 2021 and related regulations. The agreement must comply with local laws while protecting the licensor's intellectual property rights and maintaining quality control over the licensed marks. It typically includes detailed provisions about territory, payment terms, quality standards, and termination rights. The document becomes especially important in the UAE context where trademark licensing must be recorded with the Ministry of Economy to be effective against third parties. This agreement type is commonly used in franchising, manufacturing, merchandising, and brand expansion scenarios.
