the Madrid system for the international registration of marks) is the
primary international system for facilitating the registration of

established in 1891 and it is applied to the Madrid Agreement and the Madrid
Protocol. This System is managed by the World Intellectual Property
Organization in Geneva, Switzerland.
To
be entitled to use the Madrid System for register Madrid trademark, you must first have a connection with one
of its members (known as “Contracting Parties”). This connection will determine your Office of
origin (national/regional intellectual property office). You must submit your
international application through this Office of origin.
