(NAR) VOL. 2 NO. 1/JANUARY-MARCH 1991

[ BFAD MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 10, September 05, 1990 ]

BUREAU OF PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER (BPTTT) CLEARANCE IN THE PROCESSING OF BFAD BRAND NAME CLEARANCE



Effective last April 19, 1990, BPTTT clearance has not been required in the processing of brand names for Drugs, Devices, Cosmetics and other Household Products containing Hazardous Substances.  This was after confirmation with BPTTT that no trademark or tradename would be registered by the same office without BFAD certificate of product registration.

On the other hand, there exists a possibility of prior users of names of food products applied for in BFAD, registration of locally manufactured food or food products for local consumption not being mandatory.  The requirement of BPTTT clearance in the processing of BFAD clearance for brand names of food products is therefore maintained.

For the guidance of all concerned.

Adopted: 5 Sept. 1990
