A trademark is a protection consisting of a recognisable symbol, logo, word, design, phrase or a combination of all of them. It provides the identity of a product representing a source of services or goods. A trademark in India can be protected under the Trademark Act of 1999 and common law. Trademarks used to identify services are generally called service marks. In this article, we will particularly focus on trademark class 8.
Did you know? There are five broad categories of trademarks for products. These marks are generally classified as Generic Marks, Descriptive Marks, Suggestive Marks, Fanciful Marks, or Arbitrary Marks. Trademarks are classified by the USPTO primarily according to the nature of the product they relate to.
Trademark Classification:
A trademark has 45 classes in total, and the manufacture of goods and services forms a group consisting of different classes. Individual classes require a unique registration identity. This kind of product classification includes about 80,000 products and services and is divided into two parts, namely: Classes of Services (35 to 45) and Classes for Goods (1 to 34). In this article, we will clarify what patent class 8 is.
Trademark Class 8:
Here is a comprehensive guide to Trademark Classification 8. Trademarks have to be applied or registered under specific classes where each class represents a unique class of goods or services. Here, we will cover the products or goods which are included in trademark class 8.
