Brazil INPI Reopens Trademark Priority Dispute Quota for Marketplace Registrations

Brazil's INPI resumed processing priority disputes in trademark registration for marketplace modalities, allocating 1,500 requests for the period through December 31 under Normative Ordinance No. 67. The move ends a suspension since the previous quota was exhausted, but the backlog and competitive impact on marketplace operators remain uncertain. This matters as it affects trademark enforcement and market entry for e-commerce platforms in Brazil.
