A Trademark Objection is a formal challenge raised against a trademark application during the examination process. It is usually filed by the Trademark Registry or by a third party who believes that the proposed trademark should not be registered due to various reasons. The purpose of the objection is to ensure that only trademarks that meet the legal requirements and do not infringe on existing trademarks are granted registration.
The trademark examiner will issue an examination report detailing the grounds for the objection. The applicant will receive this report.
After reviewing the response and the hearing (if applicable), the trademark examiner will make a decision. If the objection is upheld, the application may be refused. If the objection is overcome, the application proceeds to the publication stage.
If the trademark application is accepted, it is published in the Trademark Journal. This allows any interested parties to file an opposition if they believe the trademark should not be registered.
If no opposition is filed during the publication period or if the opposition is resolved in favor of the applicant, the trademark is registered, and a certificate of registration is issued.
Ensures that new trademarks do not dilute or infringe upon existing brand identities.
Helps in maintaining the distinctiveness and uniqueness of trademarks in the marketplace.
Avoids potential confusion among consumers by preventing the registration of similar or identical marks.
