To verify a trademark, you must contact certain organizations that collect complete information about all previously registered brands. Collect the necessary documents and proceed to research.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare all the details of your organization or individual entrepreneur. The designation proposed for registration and the data on the goods and services that you intend to provide, fill out in several copies, so that later there will be no questions when assigning your brand by completely unauthorized people. After that, send all the collected information to the organization dealing with such issues, while attaching all personal data, phone numbers and email address
Step 2
Be assured of the quality of the company serving you. Trust the verification of the trademark only to trusted organizations. Generally, this service is not provided free of charge. Be prepared to pay a decent enough amount, do not fall for the tricks provided by many sites now.
Step 3
If your trademark is very complex or combined, then be aware that verification can take a long time. One or two days is not a realistic time frame for this difficult check. Use only those organizations that have a reliable and automated database.
Step 4
Correctly place your search order in the trademark database. Do not forget that a trademark is intended only for individual products, capable of distinguishing an individual or legal entity from similar products. Be original, otherwise the validation of the trademark you invented will constantly fail.
Step 5
In the process of considering your application, the examination must be carried out in accordance with the law. The designation is checked not only for visual similarity, but also for sound and semantic designation. In no case is confusion allowed, so you may be refused, while detailing the reason for rejection of your brand.
