Védjegyjogosult

Védjegyjogosult is a Hungarian term that translates to "trademark holder" or "right holder of a trademark" in English. It refers to the legal owner of a trademark, which is a sign capable of distinguishing the goods or services of one enterprise from those of other enterprises. This ownership grants the védjegyjogosult exclusive rights to use the trademark in relation to specific goods or services, and to prevent others from using identical or similar marks in a way that is likely to cause confusion.

The védjegyjogosult can be an individual, a company, or any other legal entity. The rights of a védjegyjogosult are typically established through registration with a national or regional intellectual property office. Once registered, the trademark provides legal protection against infringement. The védjegyjogosult has the right to license the use of their trademark to others, often in exchange for royalties, or to sell the trademark altogether. Enforcement of trademark rights is a key responsibility of the védjegyjogosult, who may take legal action against infringers. The duration of trademark protection is generally for a set period, which can be renewed, ensuring continued exclusivity for the védjegyjogosult as long as the mark is in use and renewal fees are paid.
