Trademark Registration

A trademark application starts with getting two things right: the correct class or classes for the goods or services, and a mark that is capable of distinguishing them. Registrability is decided by the registry, and objections or oppositions may follow. Where the matter requires an advocate or other qualified professional, it is coordinated accordingly.

• Businesses reviewing whether this requirement applies to them
• Entities that have already identified the obligation and need it executed properly
• Owners who want a single point of coordination for related compliance

• Class selection should reflect actual and intended use.
• Prior identical or similar marks materially affect the prospects of an application.
• Registration is at the discretion of the registry; no outcome can be assured.
• Objections and oppositions have strict response windows.

• Constitution documents of the entity
• Identity and address proof of authorised signatory
• Records relevant to the specific requirement
• Previous filings or correspondence, where available

Documents are requested securely once the requirement is reviewed. Please do not send identity or financial documents through the enquiry form.
