How the ranking works

Every week we read the UAE Trademark Bulletin and record the agent named on each new application; we add WIPO Madrid international registrations that designate the UAE, counting the representative named on them. Firms are ranked by those new filings in the chosen period. Different spellings of the same firm — in English and Arabic — are joined where we know them. Individual attorneys, owners filing for themselves and in-house teams are left out. No client, owner or address is ever shown.

A filing count measures activity, not quality. To choose a firm, compare how it handles objections and oppositions, its fixed fees and how fast it answers — or get one fixed quote from our partner, a registered UAE agent.

Questions

Who is the top trademark agent in the UAE?

HGF filed the most new UAE trademarks in the 2017 (97, 1.9% of the firms ranked), followed by FMP Fuhrer Marbach & Partner AG and Trademark Department.

How is the ranking made?

From the UAE trademark gazette (the agent named on each new application, by publication date) and WIPO Madrid records (the representative on international registrations designating the UAE, by registration date). Spellings of the same firm are joined where we know them. Individual attorneys, owners filing for themselves and in-house teams are left out.

Does a higher rank mean a better firm?

No. The table measures filing volume, not quality, price or results. Large firms with many foreign clients file the most. Pick a firm for your type of mark, your budget and how quickly it answers.

My firm is missing or listed under another name

Firms are counted as they are named in the gazette and in WIPO records. Tell us through the contact page and we will join the spellings.
