This is the fourth entry in this blog devoted to famous and well-known trademarks in Mexico (see Revisiting the protection of well-known and famous trademarks in Mexico, Registered trademarks acknowledged as well-known or famous in Mexico through the ad-hoc procedure, 2013 Update. Trademarks Acknowledged as Well-Known and Famous in Mexico). As some readers may know, Mexican law stipulates two groups of renowned marks: “marcas notoriamente conocidas” or well-known trademarks (as provided by article 6 Bis of the Paris Convention) and “marcas famosas” or famous trademarks.
In this post I provide an updated list, until the end of 2018, of registered trademarks that have been acknowledged as well-known or famous in Mexico by the Mexican Patent and Trademark Office (MPTO) through the ad hoc procedure provided in article 98 Ter 1 (formerly 98 Bis 1) of the Industrial Property Law.
There are several ways a trademark may be acknowledged as well-known or famous in Mexico; the ad hoc procedure is not the only one. A trademark may be acknowledged as well-known or famous in the decision of a contentious procedure, such as an invalidation or infringement action at the MPTO. A trademark may also be acknowledged as famous or well-known in a trademark registration procedure, when the examiner states that the applied trademark may not be approved because it is identical or confusingly similar to a famous or well-known trademark, without a prior acknowledgement in a contentious or ad hoc procedure. For example, the trademark “AMEX” owned by American Express Marketing & Development Corp. was declared famous in Mexico when the examiner issued an office action in the trademark applications number 1,981,308 “AMEX” (& Design), 1,981,310 “AMEX” (& Design) and 1,981,311 “AMEX” (& Design)[1]. Actually, the trademark “AMERICAN EXPRESS” has been acknowledged as famous in Mexico through the ad hoc procedure.
The acknowledgment of a trademark as well-known or famous is a de facto recognition, not de iure. A well-known trademark today may not be well-known tomorrow. The acknowledgment of a trademark as well-known or famous does not provide exclusivity rights, but the holder may file legal actions to stop third parties from using identical or similar marks or invalidate other party’s trademark registrations. One of the advantages of the ad hoc acknowledgement is that it extends the recognition of a de facto situation by the trademark authorities over time, for at least five years, and may be updated (similar to a renewal) if the holder proves that the trademark continues being well-known or famous.
After reviewing the list of trademarks that have applied for the ad hoc acknowledgments, I noticed that famous has been preferred over well-known. Some holders of well-known trademarks have decided to refrain from updating the recognition and file for the acknowledgment as famous (i.e.: MOMIAS DE GUANAJUATO” and “RICOLINO”). By the end of 2018, there were only five well-known updates; on the other side, there were nineteen updates of recognitions of famous trademarks. This trend was already noticeable in 2013.
The famous trademarks are in a better position than well-known trademarks, especially after the 2018 amendments to the law: Article 90, paragraph XVII of the Industrial Property Law (as amended on May, 2018) prohibits the registration of trademarks identical or confusingly similar to marks that the MPTO considers famous for any product or service whatsoever. The prohibition is similar in the case of well-known trademarks, but there has to be the risk of unfair competition, harming the reputation of the well-known mark, dilution of the well-known mark or association of the applicant with the holder of the well-known trademark.
Further, article 213, paragraph VII, of the Industrial Property Law (as amended on May, 2018) states that using a mark identical or confusingly similar to a trademark considered by the MPTO as famous is an infringement, regardless the goods or services identified with the infringing mark.
A well-known or famous trademark continues being well-known or famous, even if the holder decides not updating the ad hoc acknowledgment. As I stated, the acknowledgment of a trademark as famous or well-known is the recognition of a de facto situation that may persist regardless any filing with trademark authorities. In the absence of the ad hoc acknowledgment, if the holder wants to claim that its mark is well-known or famous, it would have file all evidence required to prove it.
It is not clear if, in the case of an infringement action involving a trademark that has been acknowledged as famous or well-known through the ad hoc procedure, such acknowledgment would be enough evidence to prove such a status or if the holder should file additional evidence to prove that the mark is indeed well-known or famous.
The following is the list of trademarks acknowledged as well-known or famous by the MPTO through the ad hoc procedure published in the Official Gazette until the end of 2018. Of course, there are other trademarks acknowledged as famous or well-known out of the ad hoc procedure, so this is a non-limitative list.
