Frequently Asked Questions
What are trademark classes?
Trademark classes are categories used to classify goods and services for trademark registration. They help identify the scope of protection for a trademark.
How many trademark classes are there?
There are 45 trademark classes under the Nice Classification:
- Classes 1–34: Goods
- Classes 35–45: Services
Why are trademark classes important?
Selecting the correct class ensures:
- Proper legal protection
- Accurate coverage of business activities
- Avoidance of objections or limitations
- Strong enforcement against infringement
How do I choose the correct trademark class?
The class depends on the nature of your business and the goods/services you offer. A business may need registration in one or multiple classes based on operations.
Can a trademark be registered in multiple classes?
Yes. If a business deals in different goods or services across categories, it can file in multiple classes to obtain broader protection.
What happens if I select the wrong class?
Incorrect classification may:
- Limit protection
- Lead to objections
- Require refiling in the correct class
- Leave your brand vulnerable in other categories
Can the same trademark exist in different classes?
Yes, similar or identical marks can exist in different classes if the goods/services are unrelated. However, well-known trademarks receive broader protection across all classes.
Is a separate fee required for each class?
Yes. Government fees and professional fees are charged per class, so multi-class applications have higher costs.
Where can I check trademark classes?
You can check and search classes on:
- Official IP India website
- Quick Company website and other trademark search platforms
Do startups need multi-class registration?
Startups should register in current and future business classes to ensure long-term brand protection and expansion security.
Can trademark classes be added later?
No. Once filed, new classes cannot be added to the same application. A fresh application must be filed for additional classes.
How do trademark classes help in brand protection?
They define the legal scope of your trademark rights and help prevent others from using similar marks in the same or related business categories.
