25 Extension of time requests
This document provides guidelines on the assessment of requests for extension of time for responding to a Compliance Report issued under the Trade Marks Act 2002 and the Trade Mark Regulations 2003. These Guidelines do not constrain the judgement and discretion of the Commissioner of Trade Marks, and each extension of time request will be considered on its own merits.
