How long does trademark protection last?

A registration lasts 10 years from the filing date and is renewed for successive 10-year periods, without limit, each time the renewal fee is paid. If you do not renew it, the protection is lost.

Request the renewal before expiry under Services → Renewal. Also keep in mind that a mark may be revoked if it is not genuinely used for 5 years without a valid reason.
