Intellectual Property

The process involves submitting an application to the Intellectual Property Organization (IPO) of Pakistan, detailing the trademark’s distinctive features and the goods or services it represents. Upon submission, the IPO-Pakistan conducts a thorough examination to ensure the trademark meets the criteria for registration, including distinctiveness and non-similarity to existing trademarks.

Once approved, the trademark is published in the Official Gazette to allow for any opposition from third parties. Upon successful completion of this process, the trademark is officially registered, granting the owner exclusive rights to use the mark in connection with their goods or services.

Immigration

In today’s globalized world, the ability to migrate, study, work, or invest abroad has become a critical avenue for individuals seeking better opportunities, security, and quality of life. Many countries, including Pakistan, offer various legal pathways for acquiring citizenship or long-term residency through structured programs. Whether one aims to secure a second passport through investment or to build a career abroad via a skilled work permit, these routes are legally recognized and supported by comprehensive immigration frameworks. Similarly, Pakistan offers citizenship options through descent, naturalization, or marriage, along with Pakistani Origin Cards (POC) and NICOPs for overseas Pakistanis and foreign spouses.

Citizenship and residency-by-investment programs have gained popularity among investors and high-net-worth individuals. Countries such as Turkey, Portugal, Malta, St. Kitts & Nevis, and Dominica offer fast-track citizenship or golden visa programs in exchange for investments in real estate, development funds, or government bonds. These programs provide the benefit of visa-free travel, global mobility, and a secure future for families. On the other hand, for professionals and skilled workers, countries like Canada, Germany, the UK, and Australia offer work permit options, including Canada’s Express Entry, the EU Blue Card, and the UK Skilled Worker route—allowing individuals to migrate based on their qualifications and experience.

Students seeking higher education abroad can apply through student visa pathways to countries like the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and the EU, with the potential to transition into post-study work permits and ultimately permanent residency. Family reunification and spouse sponsorship remain another widely used path to immigration, with countries such as the USA, UK, Canada, and Australia offering generous family-based immigration policies. Spouses, dependent children, and even parents can be sponsored under such routes.

At Rana Ijaz & Associates, we specialize in providing end-to-end immigration legal services for clients pursuing investment-based citizenship, work visas, international education, or family immigration—whether in Pakistan or abroad. With our international partnerships and experience in cross-border legal matters, we ensure that our clients navigate these complex processes with clarity, legality, and strategic advantage. Our firm remains committed to helping individuals and families unlock global opportunities while ensuring compliance with all relevant legal frameworks.
