While engaging professional services to file your trade mark application is not a
requirement, you may benefit from enlisting professional help to advise you on whether your trade mark is registrable, to
determine the appropriate classification of your goods and services, and to assist in similar mark
searches.
The Registry of Trade Marks does not give any legal advice to applicants on any subject, including
on the registrability of your trade mark. You may refer to our
Trade Marks Work Manual for more information on our examination practices. If you have any difficulty ascertaining the
registrability of your trade mark or other requirements, you should consider seeking professional advice from a
trade mark agent/lawyer.
