  A trademark distinguishes one source of goods or services from another, including words, phrases, symbols, designs, colors, sounds, and combinations of these elements. There are professional Trademark application services that have been helping people to apply for trademarks without any flaws.

  Things needed to apply for trademark application-

  • The applicant's name, residence, and country of citizenship are the standards for submitting a trademark application.
  • The names of all the partners if the applicant is a partnership firm.
  • Mention any minor partners, if applicable.
  • The nation or state of incorporation if the applicant is a corporation.
  • A list of the products and services that call for registration.
  • The trademark will be registered in soft copy.
  • A translation of the non-English language used in the mark into English is necessary if they are present.
  • Details of the earlier application (application number, filing date, country, and goods/services) must also be provided if the applicant is to claim priority from that application.
  • It is required to submit a certified priority document or a properly notarized duplicate.

  What Distinguishes Trademarks From Trade Names or Copyrights?

  A trademark serves to distinguish a commercial good or service. Trade names, usually business names, help identify the company for uses other than marketing. Additionally, copyrights are employed to safeguard original artistic creations.

  Copyrights safeguard inventive designs, but they rarely shield particular phrases or catchphrases. Additionally, copyright does not prevent others from producing the same design. As a result, a logo design may need to be covered by both copyright and trademark law.

  Conclusion

  A trademark's primary function is to stop unfair competition between businesses that rely on consumer confusion to increase sales. Customers may become confused if an independent restaurant uses a golden, arching "M" as its emblem and believe it to be McDonald's.

  This kind of confusion is prohibited by trademark law.

  The two goals of trademark law are as follows:

  • A trademark aids consumers in recognizing different products
  • A brand safeguards the owner's financial investment and good name.

  Trade names may also be used for purposes other than marketing to identify the firm on letterhead, stock certificates, contracts, and other documents. However, trade names can also be trademarks if used to designate particular products or services.
