Trademark is segregated into 45 different classes as per the NICE classification for a trademark, also known as the International Certification of Goods and Services. Each of the trademark classes represents a distinct set of goods and services.
While filing a trademark registration application, it is necessary to do a trademark search to avoid discrepancies. It is essential to choose the right class of the trademark as the mark’s wrong classification can hamper the registration process.
Trademark applications can be filed in more than one class if the business’s activity involves various goods or services falling under different trademark classifications. Further, even if a registered trademark exists under one class, another entity can file a trademark application for the same mark under another class.
Hence, filing of trademark application under one class does not provide complete exclusivity over the mark’s use. Trademark only includes exclusivity for the mark’s use concerning the class of goods or services for which the trademark is registered. Use the trademark class finder tool to find the correct trademark class for your goods or service from over 80,000 goods and services.
Among the 45 classes mentioned below, 34 classes come under the Goods section, and 11 classes come under the service section.
