The registration process
You’ve done your homework and your chosen brand name is available. Now what?
Before we go through the steps to get your trade mark registered, there are some things to bear in mind. Let’s look at the example of a trade mark registration certificate in the Introduction.
Note the following details, for we will give these aspects a little attention:
- The person in whose name the trade mark is registered is called the ‘proprietor’ — meaning owner;
- The class and the goods or services specified in the registration;
- The date of the registration;
- The address for service.
