What Is a Trademark
Search?

A trademark search is an important tool in your business’s marketing arsenal. A tm search can help you identify trademarks that are already being used on the market and find out more about them. It can also help you find out if someone else is trying to register a trademark that could potentially infringe on your brand name search or other brand-related identifiers.

We will conduct a comprehensive analysis of your brand name, logo, design, etc. and compare it against various databases of registered trademarks. Registered trademarks are entered into the database by the registrant, which means that if someone else tries to register their own version of your brand identity or another similar mark, they’ll have to pay a fee first before it’s allowed to go through registration procedures.

Things to Look Out for When Conducting Your Trademark Search Availability

The first step to conducting a tm search online is making sure you’re searching
within the
right legal
jurisdiction.

The Indian trademark registry is the governmental agency tasked with registering trademarks and
copyrights in
India.

Additionally, if your company has filed for or will file for a trademark in another country, it’s best to search through that country’s trademark office as well.

Next, it’s important to determine what type of trademark you’re trying to look up. Is your brand name search a word? A symbol? A design? An identifier?

 

Make sure that you know which type of mark you are looking for before conducting your search! You may also want to consider differentiating between goods and services when searching for trademarks. There are certain types of marks that can only be used on goods (e.g., “Jaguar” can only be used on cars), while other marks are easier to use on services (e.g., “Bose” can be used on headphones). It may be more difficult to find a trademark corresponding with service-based goods, but this shouldn’t deter you from submitting an application anyway! When making an application for registration of your mark, make sure that all required information is included: including the full name and address of the applicant and the date.

There are multiple reasons to conduct a trademark search, but the two most important are to better ensure the availability of the mark’s registration prior to adoption and to help avoid unintentional infringement of another’s mark.

How does a comprehensive trademark search work?

A comprehensive trademark search seeks to locate all risks associated with the use and potential registration of the chosen trademark. It also reveals the extent of the trademark’s non-registered, third-party use across the country. Finding unregistered but in-use marks is important because a prior user, i.e. the first user, will have common law rights that supersede the later, second user. If the first user never filed for a federal registration, the second user may be able to obtain one, but the first user will have protection in all geographic areas where the first user used the trademark prior to the federal filing by the second user.
