UK Trademark Registration

Purpose and Benefits

Used for promoting and identifying the goods or services of the trademark owner. It helps protect the company’s reputation and profits, and enhances brand image and market competitiveness.

Scope of Trademarks That Can Be Registered

Following amendments under the WTO-related provisions, a trademark may be any sign that is visually perceptible and can be represented graphically. In particular, it may be composed of a combination of text, personal names/names, letters, numbers, graphical elements, and colours, including any combination of the foregoing elements.

Three-Dimensional Trademarks

A trademark may include a three-dimensional form, but it must be recordable and publishable—for example, in the form of drawings or a textual description.

Increasing the Chances of Registration Success

To increase the chances of successful registration, it is recommended that the customer provides a trademark design created by themselves wherever possible, and that the wording-level meaning is not particularly obvious. At the same time, ensure the trademark is distinctive and novel.

Goods / Services Classification

Before filing, the goods/services classification must be checked and confirmed in accordance with the requirements, and the content must be accurately matched to the corresponding class(es). Please provide the specific goods or services you wish to apply for so that we can assist with confirmation based on the classification requirements.
