# Documents Required for Trademark Registration in Turkey (2026 Checklist) > Documents required for trademark registration in Turkey: a 2026 checklist for individuals, companies, associations and foreign applicants, with POA rules. - Canonical: https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/documents-required-for-trademark-registration - Language: en - Last updated: 2026-09-22 - Publisher: Webx Marka Patent ve Fikri Sınai Haklar Danışmanlık A.Ş. (https://www.webx.net.tr/) _Machine-readable copy of the page above. The canonical HTML page is authoritative; fees and regulations may change — check the last-updated date._ --- **The documents required for trademark registration in Turkey come down to four core elements, whoever the applicant is: a signed application form containing the applicant's identity details, the representation of the mark, a list of goods and services drafted under the Nice Classification and proof that the application fee has been paid** (Article 11(1) of Industrial Property Law No. 6769 (SMK)). An individual Turkish citizen needs a national ID number and a company needs its trade name and tax number; a power of attorney, priority document, letter of consent or technical regulations are added only in specific situations. Below you will first find a single checklist table covering every document, then separate lists for individuals, sole proprietors, limited and joint-stock companies, associations, foundations and cooperatives and foreign applicants, followed by how to prepare the representation of the mark by type, the documents added case by case and a numbered preparation list to follow before you file. ## Which Documents Are Mandatory in a Trademark Application? What is mandatory is the set of elements listed in SMK Article 11(1), and most of them are not documents you upload but information you enter into the application form of TÜRKPATENT (the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office). The form is completed electronically; an application not filed this way is removed from processing (Regulation on the Implementation of the Industrial Property Law, the Regulation, Article 5(1)). The filing date is fixed once four elements reach the Office together: the signed application form with the identity details, the representation of the mark, the list of goods and services and proof that the application fee has been paid (Regulation Article 8(2)). If any of these is missing, the filing date moves to the date, hour and minute on which the deficiency is remedied (SMK Article 15(2)). The applicant is the individual or legal entity in whose name the trademark right will be entered in the register. Some documents vary with the type of applicant, while the representation of the mark, the list and the fee are the same for everyone. Whether to file a [trademark in a personal or company name](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/trademark-in-personal-or-company-name) is a separate strategic decision; the lists below assume you have already made it. ## Documents Required for Trademark Registration: Checklist Table The table below brings together, in one place, the documents required for trademark registration in Turkey, who needs each one, whether it is mandatory and its legal basis. "Depends" means the document is required only if that situation applies. | Document or information | Who needs it | Mandatory? | Notes and legal basis | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Application form (identity and contact details) | Everyone | Yes | Completed electronically; SMK Article 11(1)(a), Regulation Article 5 | | Name, surname and Turkish national ID number | Individual Turkish citizens, sole proprietors | Yes | The person's name is entered, not the business name; Regulation Article 3(g) | | Trade name and tax number | Limited and joint-stock companies; associations, foundations, cooperatives | Yes | Exactly as in the trade registry or founding records; Regulation Article 3(g) | | Authorized signature | Everyone | Yes | For a legal entity, a person authorized to represent it signs; Regulation Article 5(2)(f), SMK Article 160(2) | | Representation of the mark | Everyone | Yes | One sign only; additional representations for sound, color, three-dimensional and motion marks; Regulation Article 7 | | List of goods and services | Everyone | Yes | With Nice class numbers; SMK Article 11(3), Regulation Article 9 | | Proof of payment of the application and additional class fees | Everyone | Yes | Must cover every class in the list; SMK Article 11(1)(ç), Regulation Article 5(2)(g) | | Transliteration into the Latin alphabet | Marks containing non-Latin characters | Depends | For example Cyrillic, Arabic or Chinese characters; SMK Article 11(1)(f) | | Power of attorney | Applicants filing through an attorney; everyone domiciled abroad | Yes, if an attorney acts | In the Office's model format; Regulation Article 124, SMK Article 160(3) | | Priority document and its Turkish translation | Applicants with a first filing abroad | If claimed | Within 3 months of filing; SMK Article 13(1), Regulation Article 6(1)(a) | | Exhibition priority certificate and a certified specimen of the mark | Those who displayed the mark at an exhibition | If claimed | Within 6 months of the display; SMK Article 12(3), Regulation Article 15(2) | | Notarized letter of consent | Applicants blocked by an earlier identical or indistinguishably similar mark | Depends | On the Office form, unconditional; SMK Article 5(3), Regulation Article 10 | | Technical regulations | Applicants for collective and certification marks | Yes, for these types | SMK Articles 11(1)(d) and 32; Regulation Article 8(8)–(9) | | Common representative details | More than one applicant | No | If none is named, the first person on the form is the common representative; SMK Article 147, Regulation Article 8(7) | | Evidence of use | Marks that may be considered descriptive | No | For distinctiveness acquired through use; SMK Article 5(2) | The first seven rows appear in every application; the rest are added depending on the features of the file. You will not find a copy of an ID card, proof of address, a tax certificate or a signature circular (imza sirküleri) in the table, because the Regulation does not list them among the documents to be attached to the application (Article 6). Even so, if the Office doubts that documents are true to their originals it may ask for the originals, and where there is reasonable suspicion it may request any evidence, including notarization (Regulation Articles 131(5) and 132). ## Documents Required for Individuals and Sole Proprietors An individual applicant does not upload a separate identity document; the identity and contact details entered in the form are sufficient. Under Regulation Article 3(g), an individual's identity details are their name, surname and, for a Turkish citizen, the national ID number (T.C. kimlik numarası); contact details mean an address plus, where available, an email address, a registered electronic mail (KEP) address and a telephone number (Article 3(e)). ### Individual applicants - **Name, surname and Turkish national ID number:** spelled exactly as in the civil registry. - **Contact details fit for service of notices:** an address, an email account that is checked regularly and a telephone number. - **Representation of the mark, list of goods and services, proof of fee payment:** the elements common to every applicant. - **Access to EPATS:** if you file yourself, a login through e-Devlet and an electronic or mobile signature. The law does not require a business activity, tax registration or company in order to apply (SMK Article 3). However, a trademark that is not put to genuine use within five years of registration can be revoked on request (SMK Articles 9 and 26), so the applicant should be the person who will actually use the mark or have it used. ### Sole proprietors A sole proprietorship (şahıs şirketi) has no legal personality separate from its owner, so the trademark application is filed in the owner's name and with the owner's national ID number. The business name shown on the tax certificate is not entered as the applicant; as a result, a sole proprietor needs exactly the same documents as any other individual. Neither a tax registration nor a trade registry entry creates a trademark right; under SMK Article 7(1), protection is obtained through registration. ## Documents Required for Limited and Joint-Stock Companies For a limited liability company or a joint-stock company, the identity details are the company's trade name and tax number (Regulation Article 3(g)); the form is signed by a representative appointed by the company's authorized bodies (SMK Article 160(2)). - **Trade name:** in full as it appears in the trade registry, including the "Limited Şirketi" or "Anonim Şirketi" suffix; an abbreviation or the brand name is not used in place of the trade name. - **Tax number:** it must belong to the same legal entity as the trade name. - **Registered office address and contact details:** consistent with the address in the trade registry. - **Authorized signature:** the signature of a person authorized to represent the company; the signature circular and the trade registry record show who that is. - **Central Registry System (MERSİS) number and Turkish Trade Registry Gazette record:** the Regulation does not list these separately for the application, but you should have them at hand to enter the trade name and the signatory without errors. The most common mistake is entering the trade name in an abbreviated or outdated form. Spelling mistakes and obvious clerical errors are corrected on request (SMK Article 11(6)), but an application filed in the name of the wrong legal entity cannot be switched to the right company that way; the route for that is an assignment. ### If the company has not been formed yet A company that has not yet been entered in the trade registry has no legal personality, so it cannot be an applicant. In that case the application is filed in the founder's name, and once the company is formed the application or the registered trademark is assigned to it; SMK Article 148(8) applies the assignment rules to applications as well. Choosing this route instead of waiting for incorporation protects your priority, because the order of rights is determined by the filing date. ## Documents for Associations, Foundations, Cooperatives and Joint Applications Associations, foundations and cooperatives can apply for a trademark in their own name as legal entities; their identity details are the entity's name and tax number (Regulation Article 3(g)). For public institutions and professional organizations with public-institution status, the name and tax number are likewise used. ### Associations, foundations and cooperatives The application is signed by the person designated by the body authorized to represent the entity (SMK Article 160(2)). A board resolution is not on the Regulation's list of supporting documents; even so, recording the internal decision on the application in writing prevents disputes about authority later. If a cooperative or producers' union intends to register the mark as a collective mark, that is, for use by its members, it cannot obtain registration without technical regulations (SMK Article 32(1)). ### More than one applicant (joint application) In a joint application, the identity and contact details of each applicant are entered separately. Naming a common representative is optional; if none is named, no deficiency notice is issued and the first person on the form is treated as the common representative (SMK Article 147(1), Regulation Article 8(7)). If the common representative is domiciled abroad, the procedures are carried out through an attorney (Article 147(2)). Because an ordinary partnership (adi ortaklık) has no legal personality, the application is filed in the names of the partners, not in the name of the partnership. ## Documents Required for Foreign Individuals and Companies A person domiciled outside Turkey can act before TÜRKPATENT only through a trademark attorney entered in the Office's register of attorneys; acts carried out without an attorney are deemed not to have been made (SMK Article 160(3)). The test is domicile, not nationality: a Turkish citizen living abroad must also file through an attorney, while a foreign national domiciled in Turkey may file in person. A foreign applicant's document list adds the following to the four common elements: - **Power of attorney:** a written power of attorney in the Office's model format showing the attorney's authority to act before the Office, the power of representation and the date (Regulation Articles 124(1) and 124(8)). - **Priority document (if claimed):** the original document issued by the competent authority of the country of first filing, with a Turkish translation certified by a sworn translator. - **Transliteration into the Latin alphabet:** if the mark contains non-Latin characters. - **Translations of other foreign-language documents:** a sworn Turkish translation when the Office requests one; a document whose translation is not filed in time is disregarded (Regulation Article 133). If the power of attorney is missing or defective, the attorney is given two months to remedy it; if it is not remedied, the application of an applicant domiciled abroad is deemed not to have been filed (Regulation Article 124(3)). Designating Turkey through the Madrid Protocol is a separate route with a different set of documents; you can find a comparison of the two routes in our guide to [trademark registration in Turkey for foreign companies](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/trademark-registration-in-turkey-for-foreign-companies). ## How Do You Prepare the Representation of the Mark? The representation of the mark is the depiction of the sign placed in the application, which will be entered in the register exactly as filed; it is this depiction that draws the boundaries of protection. The sign must be capable of being represented in the register in a way that makes the subject matter of protection clear and precise (SMK Article 4), and Regulation Article 7 sets out what must be filed for each type of mark. | Type of mark | What to file | Legal basis | | --- | --- | --- | | Word, figurative or combined mark | An image of the mark, filed with the application form | Regulation Article 7(1) | | Three-dimensional mark | Views from a single direction or from up to six different angles; the type stated on the form | Regulation Article 7(3) | | Color mark | An image of the color and a color code accepted by the Office | Regulation Article 7(4) | | Sound mark | A recording that can be played and stored electronically; musical notation where possible | Regulation Article 7(2) | | Motion mark | An image or sequence of images depicting the movement | Regulation Article 7(5) | For color marks, TÜRKPATENT's examination guidelines on SMK Article 5 name Pantone as the color coding system accepted by the Office. Colors used within a defined shape, picture or word, on the other hand, do not count as a color mark (Regulation Article 7(4)); a colored logo is filed as a figurative mark in color. Follow these rules when you prepare it: - **One application, one sign:** under SMK Article 11(2) each application may cover only one mark; the horizontal and vertical versions of a logo are separate signs. - **Show only the mark:** auxiliary elements such as an address, phone number or web address become part of the sign if you put them in the representation. - **A clear, high-resolution file:** do not use a screenshot; check the file type and size limits on the EPATS upload screen when you file. - **Decide on color in advance:** in a color filing, the colors become part of the representation; we explain the difference in protection in our guide on whether to [register a logo in color or black and white](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/register-logo-in-colour-or-black-and-white). - **Match the type and the image:** a mismatch between the type chosen on the form and the uploaded representation is a deficiency and moves the filing date (Regulation Article 7(9)). The representation of the mark cannot be changed after filing; SMK Article 11(6) only allows the correction of spelling mistakes and obvious clerical errors that do not alter the representation or the list. Preparation steps such as obtaining a copyright assignment from the designer and structuring a combined mark are covered in our guide on [how to register a logo in Turkey](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/how-to-register-a-logo-in-turkey). ## Documents Added Case by Case The documents below are not required in every application; but where the relevant situation applies, each one has its own deadline and formal requirements. ### Power of attorney A power of attorney is the written document by which the applicant authorizes a registered trademark attorney to represent them before the Office. Regulation Article 124(1) accepts either the original or a copy that the attorney certifies as true to the original and dates; the general rule is not notarization. Where the Office considers it necessary, it may request the original or a certified copy (SMK Article 160(5)); Regulation Article 124(7) expressly includes a notarized copy in this context. For acts such as withdrawing the application or surrendering the right, these powers must be stated expressly (Article 124(4)). The Regulation does not set an apostille or consular legalization as a general requirement for a power of attorney issued abroad; follow the format your attorney asks for. We describe what working with an attorney involves in our article on [what a trademark attorney is](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/what-is-a-trademark-attorney-in-turkey). ### Priority document A person who has duly made a first filing in a country party to the Paris Convention or the World Trade Organization can benefit from that date if they file in Turkey for the same mark and the same goods and services within six months (SMK Article 12(1)). Priority is claimed with the application and on payment of the claim fee, and the form states the country, date and number of the first filing (Regulation Article 15(4)). If the original document and its Turkish translation certified by a sworn translator are not filed **within three months of the filing date**, the claim is deemed not to have been made (SMK Article 13(1), Regulation Article 6(1)(a)); the application survives, but priority is lost. Under the 2026 TÜRKPATENT trademark fee schedule, recording a priority right (item 02.01.14) costs TRY 3,420, and a separate fee is payable for each priority claim (Regulation Article 15(5)). The strategic side is covered in our article on the [priority right in trademark registration](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/priority-right-in-trademark-registration). ### Notarized letter of consent A letter of consent (muvafakatname) is a notarized document in which the owner of an earlier identical or indistinguishably similar mark expressly permits the registration of the application; once it is filed, the application cannot be refused under SMK Article 5(1)(ç) (Article 5(3)). Under Regulation Article 10, the consent is given on a signed form accepted by the Office and certified by a notary; the form sets out the identity details of both parties, the representation of the mark, the number of the earlier mark and the goods and services covered by the consent. The consent must be unconditional, cannot be withdrawn once filed and requires a separate form for each application; it can be filed with the application or, in an appeal against a refusal, until a decision is made on the appeal (Article 10(3)). If an attorney signs the form, a notarized power of attorney granting the authority to consent is attached (Article 10(1)(d)). The negotiation side is covered in our guide to [trademark registration with a letter of consent](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/trademark-registration-with-a-letter-of-consent). ### Technical regulations Technical regulations are the document that sets out who may use a collective mark or a certification mark, on what conditions, and how that use is supervised; for these two types, filing them with the application is mandatory (SMK Article 32(1)). For a certification mark the core is how and how often inspections are carried out; for a collective mark it is the membership and use conditions (Articles 32(2)–(3), Regulation Article 8(8)–(9)). If the regulations are not filed at all, two months are given; if their content is incomplete, six months; if the gap is not remedied, the application is removed from processing (Regulation Articles 8(5) and 8(10)). ### Evidence of distinctiveness acquired through use A descriptive or weakly distinctive sign cannot be refused under subparagraphs (b), (c) and (d) of SMK Article 5(1) if, before the filing date, it acquired distinctiveness for the relevant goods and services through use (Article 5(2)). This evidence is not mandatory; but if you plan to rely on the exception, gathering dated invoices, advertising spend, packaging samples and press coverage in advance saves time within the two-month period for appealing a possible refusal (SMK Article 20). ## Preparing EPATS Access and Signature If you are filing yourself, sort out access before the documents. Under Regulation Article 131, applications can be filed online using an electronic signature, a mobile signature or another method provided by the Office, and they can also be made through the e-Devlet Gateway after identity verification. The documents attached to the form are accepted as true to their originals on the applicant's declaration, and legal and criminal liability for any false declaration rests with the person making it (Articles 131(3)–(4)). The practical consequence: keep the originals of the documents you scan, because the Office may ask for them if it has doubts (Article 131(5)). The signature tools required are shown, in their current form, on the system screens; we walk through the screen flow in our guide to the [EPATS trademark application](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/epats-trademark-application-step-by-step). If you work with an attorney, the attorney handles access and signature. ## Pre-Filing Preparation Checklist Preparing the documents in the order below minimizes both the risk of a deficiency notice and the chance of your filing date moving: 1. **Settle who the applicant is:** an individual, a company or joint applicants; make this decision before gathering documents. 2. **Match the identity details to official records:** the national ID number, or the full trade name and tax number as shown in the trade registry. 3. **Update your contact details:** electronic service is deemed made at the latest at the end of the tenth day after the notice is placed in your mailbox (SMK Article 160(6)). 4. **Search the register for the mark:** if an identical or similar mark exists, the need for a letter of consent or a change of strategy surfaces at the outset. 5. **Finalize the representation of the mark:** choose the type, clean up the image and settle the color and non-Latin character questions. 6. **Draft the list of goods and services:** with Nice class numbers and clear enough that no explanation will be needed. 7. **Collect the additional documents:** the power of attorney, the priority document and its translation, the letter of consent or the technical regulations, whichever apply. 8. **Calculate the fee by the number of classes:** the payment must cover every class in the list. 9. **Set up your calendar:** on the filing date, note the three-month period for the priority document and the two-month period for any deficiency. The method for writing the list is explained in our guide to [drafting the goods and services list](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/drafting-the-goods-and-services-list), and the whole flow from filing to registration in our guide on [how to register a trademark in Turkey](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/how-to-register-a-trademark-in-turkey-2026). On fees, under the 2026 TÜRKPATENT trademark fee schedule the application fee for one class (02.01.01) is TRY 2,820, the second class (02.01.02) TRY 2,820 and each third and subsequent class (02.01.28) TRY 3,150 (item 02.01.34 applies to certain goods classes linked to group 5 of Class 35). The registration fee (02.01.03, TRY 7,010) is paid not at filing but at the registration stage. Always check current amounts in the TÜRKPATENT fee schedule, which is updated every year; attorney service fees are not included in the official fees. ## What Happens If a Document Is Missing? A missing document does not immediately sink the application; TÜRKPATENT notifies the deficiency during formal examination and gives you two months to remedy it (SMK Article 15(1)). If the identity details, signature, representation of the mark, list or application fee are missing, the filing date moves to the moment the deficiency is remedied; a missing transliteration, technical regulations or additional class fee does not affect the date. A deficiency not remedied in time leads to the application being removed from processing (Article 15(3)); a defect in the priority document only costs you the priority right. A shift in the filing date means losing your place in line: if someone else filed for the same sign in the days in between, theirs is now the earlier application. We cover the types of deficiency and how to respond to a notice in detail in our guide to the [trademark application deficiency notice](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/trademark-application-formal-deficiency-notice). ## Summary: Key Takeaways - The documents required for trademark registration start with four mandatory elements: a signed form with identity details, the representation of the mark, the list of goods and services and proof of payment of the application fee (SMK Article 11(1)). - Individuals and sole proprietors apply with a national ID number, companies and other legal entities with a trade name and tax number; a copy of an ID or a tax certificate is not an application document. - Everyone domiciled abroad, whatever their nationality, files through an attorney with a power of attorney (SMK Article 160(3)). - For a power of attorney the rule is not notarization; a letter of consent, however, must always be notarized. - The priority document is filed within three months of filing, with a Turkish translation certified by a sworn translator. - A gap in any of the four core elements moves the filing date; complete the preparation checklist before you file. ### Shall we prepare your application file together? Working with trademark attorneys authorized before TÜRKPATENT, Webx matches your applicant details to official records in the [online trademark application](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/hizmetler/marka-tescil) process, prepares the representation of the mark and the list of goods and services, and completes the required power of attorney and additional documents together with you. Tell us about your situation on our [contact page](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/iletisim), and we will work out the list your file needs together. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Do I need any notarized documents to file a trademark application? In most applications, no. The application form, representation of the mark, list and fee information are submitted electronically, and for a power of attorney the general rule is the original or a copy certified by the attorney, not notarization (Regulation Article 124(1)). The main document that must always be notarized is the letter of consent (SMK Article 5(3)). If the attorney signs the consent form, the power of attorney granting that authority must also be notarized. Where there is reasonable doubt, the Office may ask for any evidence, including notarization. ### Do I have to upload a copy of my ID, proof of address or tax certificate? No. The Regulation does not list these among the documents to be attached to a trademark application. For an individual, the name, surname and Turkish national ID number, and for a legal entity, the trade name and tax number, are entered into the application form as information. They must still match official records exactly. In an online filing the person making the declaration is responsible for the accuracy of the information and documents, and the Office may request originals if it has doubts. ### Can someone without a tax registration or a company apply for a trademark? Yes. Any individual within the scope of SMK Article 3 may apply in their own name even without a business activity, a tax registration or a company; the requirements are identity and contact details, the representation of the mark, the list of goods and services and proof of fee payment. The point to watch is use: a trademark that is not put to genuine use without good reason within five years of registration can be revoked on request. Once a company is formed, the trademark can be assigned to it. ### Can I add a missing document after filing? It depends on the document. A priority document can be filed within three months of the filing date, and a letter of consent can be filed, in an appeal against a refusal, until a decision is made on the appeal. A document the Office requests in a deficiency notice is filed within two months. By contrast, the representation of the mark cannot be changed after filing, and the list of goods and services can only be narrowed, never broadened; spelling mistakes and obvious clerical errors are corrected on request. A new scope or image requires a new application. ### What powers should a trademark power of attorney contain? Under Regulation Article 124, the power of attorney must show the attorney's authority to act before the Office, the power of representation, the date of issue and the identity details of both the grantor and the attorney, and it should follow the model format published on the Office's website. Acts that may lead to a loss of rights, such as withdrawing the application, surrendering the right or withdrawing an opposition, must be stated separately and expressly. Where the attorney is a legal entity, the power of representation is granted to the entity itself. ### Do documents in a foreign language have to be translated into Turkish? For the priority document, yes: the original must be filed together with a Turkish translation certified by a sworn translator within three months of the filing date. For other foreign-language documents, the Office may request a sworn translation of all or part of the document; if the translation is not filed in time, the document is disregarded (Regulation Article 133). For non-Latin characters in the representation of the mark, what is required is not a translation but a transliteration into the Latin alphabet. ### Does a change in the company's trade name affect the trademark application? The application does not lapse, but the register must be updated. A change of trade name or company type is recorded with a request form and the Turkish Trade Registry Gazette information evidencing the change, and the entry applies to every application and registration held by that owner (Regulation Article 128). The 2026 TÜRKPATENT fee schedule has no separate item for a change of trade name; recording structural changes such as mergers and demergers is a separate item (02.01.07, TRY 4,360). ### Is any new document required at the registration stage? As a rule, no. Once the application has been published and the opposition stage is complete, the Office asks for the registration fee; proof of payment must be filed within the two-month period set by the Office, and a further one month is given if the payment is short (Regulation Article 12). If payment is not made in time, the application is removed from processing. Under the 2026 TÜRKPATENT fee schedule the registration fee (02.01.03) is TRY 7,010; always check the current amount in the schedule before paying. ## Related Resources - [Trademark Registration](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/hizmetler/marka-tescil): Explains how a trademark application is handled before TÜRKPATENT, from the preliminary search and class selection to the registration certificate. - [Trademark Search](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/hizmetler/marka-sorgulama): Provides a free tool and method for checking whether a brand name is registrable by searching similar and registered trademarks. - [Trademark Application Deficiency Notice in Turkey: Causes and Deadline](https://www.webx.net.tr/en/blog/trademark-application-formal-deficiency-notice): Received a trademark application deficiency notice in Turkey?
