You can prolong the 10-year validity of your trademark by submitting a request for trademark renewal with your IP office. You can apply as soon as 6-12 months before expiry, depending on the jurisdiction.
Trademark renewal is usually a straightforward process since the mark in question is not assessed again, only prolonged. However, that also means you can't make changes to your trademark when renewing it.
If you have more questions about renewing your trademark, check our list of questions and answers for Trademark renewal.
