Trademark Registration in Chennai, Thanjavur, Cuddalore & Ariyalur

Trademark search, class selection, TM-A filing, objection replies, opposition, renewal and brand protection for your shop name and logo.

Overview

Your shop name and logo are what customers remember. Without a registered trademark, a competitor can use a similar name and you may find it hard to stop them — or worse, someone else registers it first.

We search the trademark registry, advise you on the strongest form of your mark, select the correct classes out of the 45 Nice classes, and file your application in Form TM-A. You can use the ™ symbol from the date of filing. We reply to examination reports, attend hearings, handle oppositions and renew your registration every 10 years.

FAQ

Trademark Registration — frequently asked questions

How long does trademark registration take?

Filing is immediate and you get an application number the same day. If there are no objections or oppositions, registration typically takes several months to over a year, depending on the registry.

Can I register my shop name if it is a common word?

Descriptive or very common words are hard to register on their own. Adding a distinctive logo or prefix improves the chances. Our search report tells you the risk before you spend on filing.
