Inventa International The Madrid Union is based on the Madrid Protocol 1989, which allows applicants to directly file trademarks in several countries with a single application and set of fees, through a centralised bureau that forwards them office actions. This cost-effective system can circumvent the need to directly file trademarks in national and regional offices, resulting in greater cost savings for applicants.   Regional reach The Madrid Union has 107 members and covers 123 countries. According to WIPO, these members represent more than 80% of world trade. While 22 out of 54 countries in Africa are members of the Madrid Protocol, this geographical reach actually extends to 38 countries due to the participation of the African Intellectual Property Organisation (OAPI). In total, the Madrid Union covers about two-thirds of the continent.
