GN 57 of 1960,
GN 11 of 1961,

1. Title
These Regulations may be cited as the Trade Marks Regulations.
2. Interpretation
In these Regulations, unless the context otherwise requires—
“agent” means an agent duly authorised to the satisfaction of the Registrar;
“Office” means the Trade Marks Office;
“section” means a section of the Act;
“specification” means the designation of goods in respect of which a Trade Mark, or a registered user of a Trade Mark, is registered or proposed to be registered.
3. Prescribed fees
The fees which shall be payable in respect of any application, registration and other matters under the Act and these Regulations shall be the fees prescribed in the First Schedule.
[Am by GN 267 of 1962.]
4. Prescribed forms
The forms herein referred to are those contained in the Second Schedule and such forms shall be used in all cases to which they are applicable, and may be modified as directed by the Registrar to meet other cases.
5. Classification of goods
(1) For the purpose of—
(a) Trade Marks registrations dated in the former Protectorate of Northern Rhodesia before the 27th July, 1938;
(b) registrations of registered users in respect of the Trade Marks mentioned in paragraph (a);
goods are classified in the manner appearing in the Third Schedule unless any specification has been converted to the Fourth Schedule.
(2) For the purpose of—
(a) Trade Marks registrations dated in the former Protectorate of Northern Rhodesia on or after the 27th July, 1938;
(b) registrations of registered users in respect of the Trade Marks mentioned in paragraph (a);
(c) any Trade Marks registrations dated before the commencement of the Act whereof the specifications have been converted to the Fourth Schedule; and
(d) Trade Marks registered on or after the commencement of the Act or registrations of registered users thereunder;
goods are classified in the manner appearing in the Fourth Schedule.
6. Application by registered proprietors for conversion of specification
Where the specification of a registered Trade Mark is founded on the Third Schedule, the registered proprietor may apply to the Registrar on Form T.M. No. 45 for the conversion of that specification so that it may be founded on the Fourth Schedule, whether with or without the striking-out of goods there from, but so that the registration retains its original date, and shall include in the application a request for the like conversion of the specification of the goods of any registered users under that registration. Thereupon the Registrar in accordance with sub-section (3) of section 41 shall notify in writing to the registered proprietor a proposal showing the form which, in the Registrar's view, the amendment of the register should take. Two or more registrations of a Trade Mark in respect of goods falling within the same class of the Fourth Schedule, having the same date of registration, may be amalgamated upon conversion in accordance with this regulation.
7. Advertisement of proposal Opposition
The advertisement of a proposal for amendment under sub-section (3) of section 41 shall be made in the Trade Marks Journal and a notice of any opposition shall be given on Form T.M. No. 46 within two months from the date of the advertisement, and shall be accompanied by a duplicate of the notice and by a statement in duplicate showing how the proposed conversion would be contrary to sub-section (2) of section 41. The Registrar shall forthwith send the duplicate copies to the registered proprietor who may, within two months from the receipt of such duplicates, send to the Registrar a counter-statement on Form T.M. No. 7 setting out fully the grounds on which the opposition is contested and if he does so he shall deliver to the opponent a copy thereof. The Registrar may thereupon require or admit evidence directed to the questions in issue and, if so desired by either party he shall, before deciding the matter, give the parties an opportunity of being heard thereon.
[Am by GN 57 of 1960.]
8. Conversion of specifications; resulting registrations
When a proposal for the conversion of a specification in accordance with regulation 6 has been advertised and has not been opposed and the time for notice of opposition has expired, or having been opposed the opposition has been determined and a conversion allowed, the Registrar shall make all the entries in the register necessary to give effect to the conversion in accordance with the proposal as advertised, or the proposal as amended after opposition or appeal thereon and published subsequently in the Trade Marks Journal, and shall enter in the register the date when such entries were made. The expression “the expiration of the last registration” shall have regard to the same date in the case of all the resulting entries for the purpose of determining the next renewal thereof in accordance with section 25 as it had with regard to the registration before conversion.
[Am by GN 57 of 1960.]
9. Size, etc., of documents
Subject to any other directions that may be given by the Registrar, all applications, notices, statements, papers having representations affixed, or other documents authorised or required by the Act or these Regulations to be made, left or sent, at or to the Office, shall, unless the Registrar otherwise directs, be written, typewritten, lithographed or printed in the English language upon strong paper, in dark, indelible ink, on one side only, of a size approximately 13 inches by 8 inches, and shall have on the left-hand part thereof a margin of not less than 11/2 inches.
10. Signature of documents by partnerships, companies and associations
A document purporting to be signed for or on behalf of a partnership shall contain the names of all the partners in full and shall be signed by all the partners or by any qualified partner stating that he signs on behalf of the partnership, or by any other person who satisfies the Registrar that he is authorised to sign the document. A document purporting to be signed for or on behalf of a body corporate shall be signed by a Director or by the secretary or other principal officer of the body corporate, or by any other person who satisfies the Registrar that he is authorised to sign the document. A document purporting to be signed for or on behalf of an association of persons may be signed by any person who appears to the Registrar to be duly qualified.
11. Service of documents
All applications, notices, statements, papers having representations affixed, or other documents authorised or required by the Act or these Regulations to be made, left or sent, at or to the Office or with or to any other person may be sent through the post by a prepaid letter; any application or any document so sent shall be deemed to have been made, left or sent at the time when the letter containing the same would be delivered in the ordinary course of post. In proving such sending, it shall be sufficient to prove that the letter was properly addressed and put into the post.
12. Address
(1) Where any person is by the Act or these Regulations bound to furnish the Registrar with an address, the address given shall in all cases be as full as possible for the purpose of enabling any person easily to find the place of trade or business of the person whose address is given.
(2) The Registrar may require the address to include the name of the street and the number of the street or name of the premises, if any.
13. Address for service
(1) The Registrar may require an applicant, opponent or agent, or a registered proprietor or registered user of a Trade Mark, who does not reside or carry on business within Zambia, to give an address for service within Zambia and such address may be treated as the actual address of that person for all purposes connected with the matter in question.
(2) Any registered proprietor or registered user of a Trade Mark, or any person about to be registered as such, may, if he so desires, give an address for service for entry in the register, and such address may be entered by the Registrar.
(3) In any case in which no address for service is entered in the register, the Registrar may treat the trade or business address of the registered proprietor or registered user as therein entered as his address for service for all purposes connected with the registration.
(4) Any written communication addressed to a party or person as aforesaid at an address given by him, or treated by the Registrar, as his address for service shall be deemed to be properly addressed.
(5) The Registrar, at any time that a doubt arises as to the continued availability of an address for service entered in the register, may request the person for whom it is entered, by letter addressed to his trade or business address in the register, to confirm the address for service, and if within three months of making such request the Registrar receives no confirmation of that address, he may strike it off the register.
14. Agency
(1) Except as otherwise required by these Regulations, any application, request or notice which is required or permitted by the Act or these Regulations to be made or given to the Registrar, and all other communications between an applicant or a person making such a request or giving such a notice and the Registrar, and between the registered proprietor or a registered user of a Trade Mark and the Registrar or any other person, may be signed, made or given by or through an agent.
(2) Any such applicant, person making request or giving notice, proprietor or registered user may appoint an agent to act for him in any proceeding or matter before or affecting the Registrar under the Act and these Regulations by signing and sending to the Registrar an authority to that effect in the Form T.M. No. 1, or in such other written form as the Registrar may deem sufficient. In case of such appointment, service upon the agent of any document relating to the proceeding or matter shall be deemed to be service upon the person so appointing him, all communications directed to be made to such person in respect of the proceeding or matter may be addressed to such agent, and all attendances upon the Registrar relating thereto may be made by or through such agent. In any particular case the Registrar may require the personal signature or presence of an applicant, opponent, proprietor, registered user or other person.
(3) The Registrar shall not be bound to recognise as such agent any person—
(a) who has been proved to him to have been guilty of conduct discreditable to a Trade Mark agent; or
(b) who has been convicted of a criminal offence and sentenced to imprisonment without the option of a fine; or
(c) who has been suspended from practice as a legal practitioner or whose name has been struck off the roll of legal practitioners in Zambia; or
(d) who has been adjudged guilty of conduct discreditable to a patent agent; or
(e) who has been suspended from practice as a patent agent, or whose name has been erased from the register of patent agents kept under the provisions of the Patents Act, and not subsequently restored.
15. Registrable Trade Marks
(1) The Registrar may refuse to accept any application for the registration of a mark upon which any of the following appear—
(a) the words “Patent”, “Patented”, “Registered”, “Registered Design”, “Copyright”, “Entered at Stationer's Hall”, “To counterfeit this is a forgery”, or words to like effect;
(b) representations of the President, or any colourable imitations thereof;
(c) the words “Red Cross” or “Geneva Cross”, and representations of the Geneva and other crosses in red, or of the Swiss Federal cross in white on a red ground or silver on a red ground, or such representations in a similar colour or colours.
(2) Where there appears in a Trade Mark the registration of which is applied for a representation of a cross in any colour, not being one of those mentioned in paragraph (c) of sub-regulation (1), the Registrar may require the applicant as a condition of acceptance to undertake not to use the cross device in red, or in white on a red ground or silver on a red ground, or in any similar colour or colours.
[Am by SI 307 of 1965.]
16. Armorial Ensigns, National Flag, etc
The following features may not appear on Trade Marks the registration of which is applied for—
(a) representations of the Armorial Ensigns of Zambia or devices so nearly resembling it as to be likely to be mistaken for it;
(b) representations of the National Flag of Zambia;
(c) any words, such as “the President”, “Republic” or “Zambia”, or any letters or devices if used in such a manner as to be likely to lead persons to think that the applicant either has or recently has had the patronage or authorisation of the President or patronage or authorisation from the Government of the Republic of Zambia, whether or not such may be the case.
[Am by SI 307 of 1965.]
17. Arms of city, etc
Where a representation of the armorial bearings, insignia, orders of chivalry, decorations or flags of any state, city, borough, town, place, society, body corporate, institution or person appears on a mark, the Registrar, before proceeding to register the mark, shall, if he so requires, be furnished with a consent to the registration and use of such emblems from such official or other person as appears to the Registrar to be entitled to give consent, and in default of such consent he may refuse to register the mark.
18. Consent of person to use of name or representation
Where the name or representation of any person appears on a Trade Mark, the Registrar shall, if he so requires, before proceeding to register the mark, be furnished with consent from him or, in the case of a person recently dead, from his legal representative, and in default of such consent he may refuse to register the mark.
19. Name or description of goods on a Trade Mark
(1) Where the name or description of any goods appears on a Trade Mark, the Registrar may refuse to register such mark in respect of any goods other than the goods so named or described.
(2) Where the name or description of any goods appears on a Trade Mark, which name or description in use varies, the Registrar may permit the registration of the mark for those and other goods, and in that case the applicant shall state in his application that the name or description will be varied when the mark is used upon goods covered by the specification other than the named or described goods.
20. Preliminary advice by Registrar as to distinctiveness
(1) Any person who proposes to apply for the registration of a Trade Mark in Part A or Part B of the register in respect of any goods may apply to the Registrar on Form T.M. No. 30, or on Form T.M. No. 29 in a case where he is also making an application under regulation 113, for advice as to whether the Trade Mark, of which duplicate representations shall accompany the form, appears to the Registrar prima facie to be inherently adapted to distinguish within the meaning of section 14 or 15, as the case may be, in relation to those goods, and shall apply separately in relation to goods comprised within different classes of goods in the Fourth Schedule.
(2) A notice of withdrawal of an application for the registration of a Trade Mark given under sub-section (3) of section 43 for the purpose of obtaining repayment of any fee paid on the filing of the application shall be given in writing within two months from the date of the notice of the Registrar's objection.
21. Form of application Specification
(1) An application to the Registrar for the registration of a Trade Mark shall be signed by the applicant or his agent. For a Trade Mark other than a certification or defensive Trade Mark the application shall be made on Form T.M. No. 2. For a certification or a defensive Trade Mark the application shall be made on Form T.M. No. 5 or Form T.M. No. 33 respectively. Each application shall be for registration in respect of goods in one class of the Fourth Schedule only.
(2) Every application claiming priority under section 73 by reason of an application to register the Trade Mark made or deemed to have been made in a convention country, which shall be named in the application, shall state the date of that application, and the applicant shall furnish a certificate by the Registrar or other registering authority of that country, or shall otherwise verify the application made or deemed to have been made therein to the satisfaction of the Registrar.
(3) In the case of an application for registration in respect of all the goods included in a class, or of a large variety of goods, the Registrar may refuse to accept the application unless he is satisfied that the specification is justified by the use of the mark which the applicant has made, or intends to make if and when it is registered.
(4) For the purposes of the provisions of sub-section (2) of section 22, an application shall be made on Form T.M. No. 2, subject to such modifications as the Registrar may approve.
[Am by GN 11 of 1961.]

An application for the registration of a Trade Mark shall be addressed and sent to the Registrar at the Office.
23. Representation of mark
(1) Every application for the registration of a Trade Mark shall contain a representation of the mark in the space provided on the application form for that purpose.
(2) Where the representation exceeds such space in size, the representation shall be mounted upon linen, tracing cloth or such other material as the Registrar may consider suitable. Part of the mounting shall be affixed in the space aforesaid and the rest may be folded.
(3) In the case of word marks represented in plain letters, the word shall be printed or stencilled in letters of not less than 3/8 inch in size.
24. Additional forms and representations
There shall be sent with every application for registration of a Trade Mark (other than a certification Trade Mark) six additional representations of the mark on Form T.M. No. 3. The representation of the mark on the application and its duplicate (if any) and the additional representations shall correspond exactly. The additional representations shall in all cases be noted with all such particulars as may from time to time be required by the Registrar. Such particulars shall, if required, be signed by the applicant or his agent.
25. Representations to be durable
All representations of marks must be of a durable nature, but the applicant may in case of need supply, in place or representations on Form T.M. No. 3, such representations on sheets of strong paper as may be approved by the Registrar.
26. Separate applications
Applications for the registration of the same mark in different classes shall be treated as separate and distinct applications, and in all cases where a Trade Mark is registered under the same official number for goods in more than one class, whether on conversion of the specification under regulation 6 or otherwise, the registration in respect of the goods included in each separate class shall be deemed to be a separate registration for all the purposes of the Act.
27. Representations to be satisfactory.
The Registrar, if dissatisfied with any representation of a mark, may at any time require another representation satisfactory to him to be substituted before proceeding with the application.
28. Specimens of Trade Marks in exceptional cases
(1) Where a drawing or other representation or specimen cannot be given in the manner aforesaid, a specimen or copy of the Trade Mark may be sent either of full size or on a reduced scale and in such form as the Registrar may think most convenient.
(2) The Registrar may also, in exceptional cases, deposit in the Office a specimen or copy of any Trade Mark which cannot conveniently be shown by a representation, and may refer thereto in the register in such manner as he may think fit.
29. Series of Trade Marks
Where application is made for the registration of a series of Trade Marks under sub-section (2) of section 26, a representation of each Trade Mark of the series shall be included, all as aforesaid, in the application form, in the duplicate thereof (if any), and six representations of each Trade Mark of the series shall be pinned on the accompanying Form T.M. No. 3.
30. Transliteration and translation
(1) Where a Trade Mark contains a word or words in characters other than Roman, there shall, unless the Registrar otherwise directs, be endorsed on the application form, and on the accompanying Form T.M.No. 3, a sufficient transliteration and translation to the satisfaction of the Registrar of each of such words, and every such endorsement shall state the language to which the word belongs and shall be signed by the applicant or his agent.
(2) Where a Trade Mark contains a word or words in a language other than English, the Registrar may ask for an exact translation thereof together with the name of the language, and such translation and name, if he so requires, shall be endorsed and signed as aforesaid.
31. Search
Upon receipt of an application for the registration of a Trade Mark in respect of any goods, the Registrar shall cause a search to be made amongst the registered marks and pending applications, for the purpose of ascertaining whether there are on record in respect of the same goods or description of goods any marks identical with the mark applied for, or so nearly resembling it as to render the mark applied for likely to deceive or cause confusion, and the Registrar may cause the search to be renewed at any time before the acceptance of the application, but shall not be bound to do so.
32. Acceptance, absolute or conditional; objection
After such search, and consideration of the application, and of any evidence of use or of distinctiveness or of any other matter which the applicant may furnish or may be required to furnish, the Registrar may accept the application absolutely, or he may object to it, or he may express his willingness to accept it subject to such conditions, amendments, disclaimer, modifications or limitations as he may think right to impose.
33. Registrar's objections Hearing
If the Registrar objects to the application, he shall inform the applicant of his objections in writing and, unless within two months the applicant applies for a hearing or makes a considered reply in writing to those objections, he shall be deemed to have withdrawn his application.
34. Registrar's conditions, etc Hearing
If the Registrar is willing to accept the application subject to any conditions, amendments, disclaimer, modifications or limitations, he shall communicate such willingness to the applicant in writing, and, if the applicant objects to such conditions, amendments, disclaimer, modifications or limitations, he shall within two months from the date of the communication apply for a hearing or communicate his considered objections in writing, and if he does not do so he shall be deemed to have withdrawn his application. If the applicant does not object to such conditions, amendments, disclaimer, modifications or limitations, he shall forthwith notify the Registrar in writing and alter his application accordingly.
35. Decision of Registrar
(1) The decision of the Registrar, at a hearing in accordance with regulation 33 or 34, or without a hearing if the applicant has duly communicated his considered objections or considered reply, in writing, and has stated that he does not desire to be heard, shall be communicated to the applicant in writing and, if the applicant objects to such decision, he may within two months by applying upon Form T.M. No. 4 require the Registrar to state in writing the grounds of, and the materials used by him in arriving at, his decision.
(2) In a case where the Registrar makes any requirements to which the applicant does not object, the applicant shall comply therewith before the Registrar issues such statement in writing. The date when such statement is sent to the applicant shall be deemed to be the date of the Registrar's decision for the purpose of appeal.
36. Disclaimer
The Registrar may call on an applicant to insert in his application such disclaimer as the Registrar may think fit, in order that the public generally may understand what the applicant's rights, if his mark is registered, will be.
37. Application under section 32
An application for the registration of a defensive Trade Mark under section 32 shall be made, addressed and sent to the Registrar on Form T.M. No. 33, and shall be accompanied by a statement of case setting forth the full particulars of the facts on which the applicant relies in support of his application, verified by an affidavit or solemn declaration made by the applicant or some other person approved for the purpose by the Registrar. The applicant may send with this declaration, or subsequently, such other evidence as he may desire to furnish, whether after request made by the Registrar or otherwise, and the Registrar shall consider the whole of the evidence before deciding on the application. In all other respects, and where they are appropriate and it is not otherwise stated, these Regulations shall apply to such applications as they apply to applications for the registration of ordinary Trade Marks.
38. Application under section 42
An application for the registration of a certification Trade Mark under section 42 shall be made to the Registrar on Form T.M. No. 5 and shall be accompanied by six additional representations of the Trade Mark on Form T.M. No. 3.
39. Authorisation to proceed
(1) These Regulations shall apply to such applications as they apply to applications for the registration of ordinary Trade Marks, except that for references therein to acceptance of an application there shall be substituted references to authorisation to proceed with the application, and that the applicant shall not be deemed to have abandoned his application if in the circumstances of regulation 33 or 34 he does not apply for a hearing or reply in writing.
(2) The address of an applicant to register a certification Trade Mark shall be deemed to be a trade or business address for all the purposes for which such an address is required by these Regulations.
40. Case; draft regulations
The applicant shall send to the Registrar with his application or when required by the Registrar a case setting out the grounds on which he relies in support of his application together with draft regulations for governing the use of the mark and Form T.M. No. 34, all being in duplicate. The Registrar may communicate to the applicant any observations he may have to make on the sufficiency of the case or the suitability of the draft regulations and the applicant may modify either of those documents.
41. Directions by Registrar
If the Registrar decides to authorise the application to proceed, he may at any time call for such evidence, if any, as he thinks fit, and shall if required hear the applicant before giving directions as provided in sub-paragraph (5) of paragraph 1 of the Schedule to the Act. When such directions have been given and the application has been accepted, the regulations for governing the use of the mark approved by the Registrar, as well as the form of application, shall be open to public inspection.
42. Advertisement of application
(1) An application for the registration of a Trade Mark required or permitted to be advertised by sub-section (1) of section 23 or paragraph 2 of the Schedule to the Act, shall be advertised in Form T.M. No. 44 in the Trade Marks Journal. In the case of an application with which the Registrar proceeds only after the applicant has lodged the written consent to the proposed registration of the registered proprietor of another Trade Mark or another applicant, the words “By Consent” shall appear in the advertisement.
(2) If no representation of the Trade Mark be included in the advertisement of the application, the applicant shall refer in such advertisement to the place or places where a specimen or representation of the Trade Mark is deposited for exhibition.
[Am by GN 57 of 1960.]
43. Wood block or electrotype printing
For the purposes of such advertisement the applicant may, at the appropriate time, supply or be required to supply a printing block (or more than one, if necessary) of the Trade Mark satisfactory to the Registrar, of such dimensions as may from time to time be approved or directed by the Registrar, or shall supply such information or other means of advertising the Trade Mark as may be required by the Registrar; and the Registrar, if dissatisfied with the printing block supplied by the applicant or his agent, may require a fresh block before approving of the advertisement.
44. Advertisement of series.
When an application relates to a series of Trade Marks differing from one another in respect of the particulars mentioned in sub-section (2) of section 26, the applicant may be required to supply a printing block (or more than one, if necessary) satisfactory to the Registrar of any or of each of the Trade Marks constituting the series; or the Registrar may, if he thinks fit, direct that there shall be inserted with the advertisement of the application a statement of the manner in which the several Trade Marks differ from one another.
45. Advertisement under sections 23 and 40
Advertisements under sub-section (10) of section 23 and under sub-sections (2) and (4) of section 40 shall mutatis mutandis be made in the same manner as advertisements relating to an application for registration.
46. Opposition
