Trademark registration is the legal process of securing exclusive rights to a trademark, which could be a name, logo, or slogan representing your business. It legally protects your brand identity and prevents others from using confusingly similar marks.
Having a registered trademark enhances your brand’s value, deters infringement, and provides legal remedies in case of unauthorized use. It is essential for establishing trust and distinguishing your products or services in the marketplace.
The trademark registration process typically takes between 8 to 12 months, depending on various factors including the examination process and whether any oppositions arise.
