Insolvency proceedings
Article 24
1. The only insolvency proceedings in which an EU trade mark may be involved are those opened in the Member State in the territory of which the debtor has his centre of main interests. However, where the debtor is an insurance undertaking or a credit institution as defined in Directive 2009/138/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 13 ) and Directive 2001/24/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 14 ) , respectively, the only insolvency proceedings in which an EU trade mark may be involved are those opened in the Member State where that undertaking or institution has been authorised. 2. In the case of joint proprietorship of an EU trade mark, paragraph 1 shall apply to the share of the joint proprietor. 3. Where an EU trade mark is involved in insolvency proceedings, on request of the competent national authority an entry to this effect shall be made in the Register and published in the European Union Trade Marks Bulletin referred to in Article 116.
