In principle, there is not much difference in the regulations of the US and the EU, but in practice it is necessary to take into account some specific differences that exist in the regulations in order to understand how to proceed in specific cases. This is certainly important for companies from the Republic of North Macedonia that want to register a company or already have business cooperation that requires respect for the right to trademark protection with institutions or companies from the US and the EU.
