Summary
The World Trade Organization’s (WTO) Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS Agreement) was signed (as an annex to the agreement establishing the WTO) on 15 April 1994 and entered into force on 1 January 1995.1 Leaving aside systems specifically designed to facilitate international registration of trademarks, the multilateral instrument containing substantive trademark law that preceded TRIPS was the Paris Convention.2
