Abstract

A collective mark is that mark taken by establishments, whether these establishments are commercial, industrial, or cooperative, with the aim of distinguishing the characteristics that their products, goods, or services have and which those establishments provide, whether for commercial or even non-commercial purposes, such as the mark that some cooperative societies take as their logo, and despite The privacy of this mark. We did not find in the Iraqi Trade Marks and Commercial Data Law any texts specific to it, how to submit a registration application, and who has the right to submit it, in addition to the absence of special texts for special cases of deleting this mark, clarifying how to act and prohibit it. Disposing of the collective mark after its removal from the registers, we hope that the Iraqi legislator will address these loopholes in the law of trademarks and commercial data and give this mark greater privacy
