Official record of Merlin Duck
Merlin Duck, a well-known social media character, already has a trademark registration in Mexico. The Ministry of Economy and the Mexican Institute of Industrial Property (IMPI) granted protection to its owner, Karla Ivette Gómez López.
The application was submitted on June 22 through the Marcanet system. The registration numbers are 3646513 and 3646554. The trademark protects education, training, entertainment, sports and cultural activities services.
The Secretary of Economy, Marcelo Ebrard, and the general director of IMPI, Vidal Llerenas, delivered the certificate to the Gómez López family. During the event, Ebrard noted:
All trademark registration applications are subject to a technical and legal analysis procedure, with the aim of guaranteeing certainty, legality and transparency in the protection of industrial property rights in Mexico.
For his part, Llerenas explained that it is a public fact that Merlin Duck is the pet of the family of Karla Ivette Gómez, to whom the brand belongs.
The registration was granted after a person from Yucatán also submitted an application for the same name. The authority intervened to protect the rights of the owner family.
With this action, the Ministry of Economy and the IMPI reaffirm their commitment to providing legal certainty and protecting creativity and intangible assets in the country.
