The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) announced that as of December 18, 2015 Gambia will join the Madrid System for the International Registration of trademarks. This means that as of this date it will be possible to designate Gambia in your International application. Other new members who also recently joined the Madrid protocol are Cambodia and The African Intellectual Property Organization (OAPI) on March 5, 2015 and Zimbabwe on March 11, 2015.
The Madrid Protocol is an International system for obtaining trade mark protection for a number of countries and/or regions using a single application. An International registration is only possible for countries and regions which have joined the system.
