Trademark Consultation

Step 1: Initial Consultation & Requirement Assessment

Connect with our experts for a detailed consultation.

We understand your business model, brand usage, and future plans to determine what can be registered as a trademark and how to proceed correctly.

This step helps reduce the risk of objections or rejection later in the process.

Once the search is completed, we prepare the trademark application in line with the applicable legal and procedural requirements.
Our team ensures that:

  • Correct brand details are included
  • Appropriate classes of goods or services are selected
  • Required documents are reviewed and aligned
The application is then submitted through the prescribed filing system (as per your country requirement).

Step 4: Examination by the Trademark Authority

After submission, the trademark authority examines the application to verify:

  • Formal compliance
  • Legal eligibility
  • Potential conflicts
If the authority raises any queries or objections, we guide you on how to respond within the required timelines.
Examination by the Trademark Authority

Step 5: Decision – Approval or Objection

Based on the examination, the authority may:

  • Approve the application for the next stage, or
  • Raise objections or refuse the application
In case of objections, we assist with understanding the issue and preparing the appropriate response or next steps, as permitted by local regulations.

Step 6: Publication for Opposition

If the application is approved, it is published in the official journal or platform for a defined period.

During this stage, third parties may raise opposition if they believe the trademark conflicts with their existing rights.

Registration or Opposition Handling

Step 7: Registration or Opposition Handling

If no opposition is filed within the prescribed timeframe, the trademark proceeds to registration, and a registration certificate is issued.

If an opposition is filed, we guide you through the response process and explain the available options based on applicable rules and timelines.

Trademark Symbols – TM & ®

There are two commonly used symbols that indicate the status of a trademark. Understanding their meaning helps ensure correct and lawful usage.
Trademark Symbols TM
TM Symbol (™)

The TM symbol is used to show that a brand name, logo, or mark is being claimed as a trademark. It is generally used when the trademark is not yet registered but the owner wants to indicate ownership, especially while the application is under process or pending.

Trademark Symbols ®
Registered Trademark Symbol (®)

The ® symbol is used only after a trademark has been successfully registered. It indicates that the mark has official legal protection and that the owner holds exclusive rights over it. This symbol is permitted only for registered trademarks, and using it without valid registration may lead to legal consequences.

Trademark

Validity Period

Once a trademark is successfully registered, it is generally valid for a fixed period, usually 10 years from the date of registration. After this period, the trademark can be renewed for additional terms by following the prescribed renewal process. The validity period and renewal rules may vary (as per country-specific laws and regulations).

Frequently

Asked Questions

Yes, you can run a business without a registered trademark. However, your brand name is not legally protected. If someone else registers the same trademark, they can legally claim ownership, and you may be forced to stop using your brand name.
If another party registers your business or brand name as a trademark, they become the legal owner. You may lose the right to sell products or services under that name, even if you were using it earlier.
No, trademark registration is country-specific. A trademark registered in one country does not automatically protect your brand in other countries. Separate registration or guidance is required for each market.
