Overview

Amazon sellers who want to join Brand Registry using a trademark filed in Poland must work through the Polish Patent Office (UPRP) to retrieve and confirm the exact trademark data. The process involves locating the record, matching the name and number format precisely, and submitting the information to Amazon. Getting these details right the first time prevents enrollment delays and protects the brand on the Polish marketplace.

Key Points

• Polish Patent Office (UPRP) — All verification for Brand Registry must reference the official UPRP database, the authority that manages Polish trademarks.
• Number format matters — Registered marks use the prefix R. (e.g., R.12345) while pending applications use Z. (e.g., Z.67890); any deviation will trigger a rejection.
• Exact name match required — The trademark name entered in Amazon’s form must be identical to the spelling and punctuation shown in the UPRP record.
• Registered or pending works — Sellers can enroll with a fully registered trademark or one that is still pending approval in Poland.
• WIPO‑issued marks accepted — If the Polish trademark was obtained through the World Intellectual Property Organization, the WIPO registration number can be used for verification.

How to Register a Polish Trademark for Amazon Brand Registry

1. Access the UPRP online search — Open the UPRP portal (https://uprp.gov.pl) and select the “Intellectual Property Rights” search tab. For example, a seller with registration number R.11223 would type that exact string into the search bar.
2. Filter to trademarks only — Uncheck categories such as patents or designs so the results list only trademark entries. A seller looking for a pending application would ensure the filter excludes “patent” and “utility model.”
3. Enter the correct identifier — Use the proper prefix: R. for a granted mark (e.g., R.11223) or Z. for a pending filing (e.g., Z.44556). Entering “11223” without the prefix will return no results and stall the process.
