Address for service
10.—(1)  The Registrar may require an applicant, opponent, agent or a registered proprietor or registered user of a trade mark who does not reside or carry on business within Singapore to give an address for service within Singapore and that address may be treated as the actual address of that person for all purposes connected with the matter in question.
(2)  Any registered proprietor or registered user of a trade mark or any person about to be registered as such may, if he so desires, submit on Form T.M. 1 an address for service for entry in the register and such address may be entered by the Registrar.
(3)  All applications on Form T.M. 1 shall be signed by the applicant for registration or the registered proprietor or registered user, as the case may be, unless in exceptional circumstances the Registrar otherwise allows.
(4)  In any case in which no address for service is entered in the register, the Registrar may treat the trade or business address of the registered proprietor or registered user as therein entered as his address for service for all purposes connected with the registration.
(5)  Any written communication addressed to a party or person as aforesaid at an address given by him, or treated by the Registrar, as his address for service shall be deemed to be properly addressed.
(6)  The Registrar may, at any time that a doubt arises as to the continued availability of an address for service entered in the register, request the person for whom it is entered, by letter addressed to his trade or business address in the register, to confirm the address for service, and if, within two months of making such a request, the Registrar receives no confirmation of that address, he may strike it off the register.
