What is Trademark Registration Overview

Trademarks are special unique signs that are used to identify and differentiate goods or services provided by a business. They can be designs, pictures, signs, words or even expressions. It is important because it differentiates your products from the competition. It can be associated with your brand or product. Trademarks are classified as intellectual property and therefore are protected from infringement. Trademarks and its rights are protected by the Trademark Act, 1999.

To get the protection of trademark rights under the Act, one has to register the trademark. It is important to register your trademark because it prevents others from copying your mark and misrepresenting other products with your mark. Trademarks help the customers to recognise the brand and the brand value in one look such as the logo of a tick sign for Nike or a jumping wildcat for Puma etc.

Unlike patents, trademark does not have a definite limitation period. Where a patent expires in 20 years a trademark registration expires after 10 years of its registration, but unlike patents, a trademark can be renewed again for another 10 years. This process can be indefinitely done, meaning as long as you keep renewing the trademark it will not expire and will continue to be under the protection of the Act.
