How It Works
A step-by-step guide to securing exclusive rights to your brand, from search to certificate.
Trademark Search
Conduct a comprehensive search to ensure the proposed mark is unique and doesn't conflict with existing marks.
Filing Trademark Application
Prepare and file the application with the Trademark Office, including details of the mark, goods/services, and applicant information.
Formality Examination & Objections
The Trademark Office examines the application for compliance. If issues arise, an official examination report (Office Action) is issued.
Publication in Trademark Journal
If accepted, the mark is published in an official journal to allow third parties to oppose registration.
Registration & Issuance
If no opposition is filed, or opposition is dismissed, the mark proceeds to registration and the official certificate is issued, granting exclusive rights for 10 years, renewable.
