In a significant development for institutional branding and intellectual property protection, the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) has issued a Certificate of Registration to the university for its official logo bearing the mark, “UNIVERSITY OF SAINT LOUIS TUGUEGARAO.”
Following the filing of the application on October 7, 2025, the trademark was officially recorded on December 29, 2025 under Registration No. 4/2025/00528193. Consequently, the registration grants protection for ten (10) years, remaining valid until December 29, 2035.
Prior to its approval, the mark was published for opposition in the IPOPHL e-Gazette on November 28, 2025, in accordance with standard procedure. In addition, the university claimed the colors navy blue, dark blue, and tangerine yellow as integral elements of the registered logo.
Moreover, the registration covers Classes 16, 18, 21, 25, and 41, thereby securing protection of the university’s logo across a broad range of goods and services. These include paper goods and educational supplies; luggage, bags, and related carriers; household and kitchen utensils and decorative items; clothing and apparel; as well as education, entertainment, publishing, and translation services.
Overall, this milestone further strengthens the university’s institutional identity and reinforces its commitment to safeguarding its official logo through proper legal protection.
