Historical Background
Airbnb's European Union trademark was registered in 2013. On 21 May 2025, the European Court of Justice dismissed Airbnb's appeal against a partial revocation of its EU trademark, ruling that advertising services for third parties fell outside acceptable use. The company has successfully opposed similar marks — including SeaBNB in the US — though enforcement remains complex in jurisdictions where local operators adopt similar naming conventions.
