In the commercial industry region, one of the strongest Trademarks is a Logo. Ironically due to this reason, the Trademark Examiner is most likely to put Objection in the Logo design. That doesn’t mean your claim is denied, but the registrar wants a valid explanation about the mark and its relevance.

If you are including a Logo in the Trademark, the design needs to be fanciful and arbitrary. It needs to be distinct and unique as well. The applicant gets an opportunity to explain how the Logo is relevant to his/her brand.

Reasons for Trademark Objection in Logo:

1. Similar Trademarks exist already: When your mark is the same as an already registered Trademark, there will be Objection.

2. Deceptive Marks: Any mark in the Logo that can raise doubt among the consumers about its origin cannot get Trademark Registration.

3. Lack of Uniqueness: If a Logo isn’t unique, it creates confusion and does not help the consumer in identifying goods or services.

4. Offensive words or obscenity in Trademark: Any sign with obscenity or offensive word or image in your Trademark can face Objection.

Trademark Objection Reply
