Cambodia became the 95th member of the Madrid System on March 5, 2015, following the deposit of its instrument of accession to the Madrid Protocol.

The Madrid Protocol concerning the International Registration of Marks was signed to facilitate access to some countries where the trademark registration procedure did not tally with the previous Madrid System for the International Registration of Marks (European Union, United States).

The international trademark system allows trademark owners to protect their products in a very wide range of countries by filing a single application.

Henceforth, trademark protection in Cambodia can be achieved directly through the international mark system in an easier and cheaper procedure.
