Many trademark applications are rejected because they could be in conflict with an existing registered trademark. Having two identical trademark is contrary to the intellectual property rules and would cause confusion among consumers.
To improve the chances of choosing a business name that can be trademarked, follow the checklist below:
Ensure that the mark does not fall under any of the categories listed above.
Perform a trademark search to ensure there are no similar trademarks.
Perform a domain name search to ensure that the domain is available for the mark – to avoid any cybersquatting in the future.
Get consultation from a trademark expert, if in doubt.
