Why Choose Vakilsearch for Trademark Search?

A trademark search is a crucial first step before filing for trademark registration. It helps confirm trademark availability and ensures your chosen brand name, logo, or slogan is not already registered by another business. By conducting a proper trademark registration check, you safeguard your brand from costly disputes and rejection during the application process.

A trademark search is a crucial first step before filing for trademark registration. It helps confirm trademark availability and ensures your chosen brand name, logo, or slogan is not already registered by another business. By conducting a proper trademark registration check, you safeguard your brand from costly disputes and rejection during the application process. Key Benefits of Trademark Search:

Confirms brand name availability before investment in marketing.

Helps avoid legal disputes with existing trademark owners.

Saves time and costs by reducing the risk of rejection.

Builds a stronger foundation for successful trademark registration.

There are different methods of trademark search (TM search) to help ensure that your brand name, logo, or design is unique and available for registration. Here are the main types:

Wordmark Search – Checks availability of names, words, or phrases under trademark classes.

Phonetic Search – Finds trademarks that sound similar, even if spelled differently (e.g., 'Lite' vs. 'Light').

Vienna Code (Logo/Device) Search – Used for logo trademark search, based on Vienna Classification codes for images, symbols, or designs.

Similarity Search – Identifies marks that are visually, conceptually, or structurally similar to your proposed mark.

Owner/Applicant Search – Looks up trademarks filed or registered under a specific business or individual’s name.

Trademark Status Search – Tracks the current application stage or validity of an already filed trademark.

To search for a trademark by class, start by identifying the right category for your product or service using the international Nice Classification system. Once you know the correct class, use your country’s official trademark database, for example, the USPTO database in the U.S. to check for existing trademarks in that category. A trademark class search is essential because trademarks are registered under specific classes defined by the Nice Classification (NCL) system. This system categorises goods and services into 45 trademark classes Classes 1–34 for goods and Classes 35–45 for services. Conducting a proper trademark classification search ensures that your brand name or logo is registered in the right category, avoiding conflicts with similar marks in the same class.

A trademark search in India can be done by anyone planning to protect a brand name, logo, or business identity. Whether you’re an individual entrepreneur or a large corporation, conducting a company name trademark search ensures your mark is unique and legally available before registration. Those who can perform a business trademark search include:

Individuals – Sole proprietors, freelancers, or personal brand owners.

Partnerships – Firms checking brand name availability for joint ventures.

LLPs (Limited Liability Partnerships) – Ensuring distinct identity in the market.

Companies (Pvt Ltd / Public Ltd) – Verifying trademarks before incorporation or expansion.

Trusts & NGOs – Protecting unique names or logos used for social causes.

Foreign Applicants – Overseas businesses protecting their brand in India.

When conducting a trademark search, be sure to check all relevant details such as the country, priority, and filing status of similar marks. This is especially important if you’re looking into international registrations, as different jurisdictions have different systems and fees. The data available through global databases enables you to access and review existing marks and avoid choosing something that could trigger legal objections abroad. Before using the IPIndia trademark search tool, it’s important to prepare correctly. A well-planned IPIndia public search helps you avoid rejection, disputes, and duplication. Here’s a checklist of key points before starting an IP trademark search:

Select the correct class – Choose from the trademark classification list (Goods 1–34, Services 35–45).

Decide the type of mark – Wordmark, logo/device, or combined.

Focus on jurisdiction – For Indian protection, use the IPIndia trademark public search.

Use both exact & phonetic search – To identify similar-sounding or closely related marks.

Check global databases – If planning to expand internationally, verify availability in WIPO or USPTO.

Before you register your brand name, it’s important to check whether the trademark is available. Vakilsearch makes this process simple, fast, and completely free. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Go to https://trademarks.vakilsearch.com/, you’ll find a trademark search bar ready for use.

Step 1: Visit the Vakilsearch Website

Type in the brand name, logo name, or wordmark you wish to register. Make sure the spelling is correct, and try to enter it exactly as you plan to use it.

Step 2: Enter Your Trademark Name

Once you enter the name, hit the ‘Search’ button. Our system will instantly search through the trademark database and show results for similar or identical trademarks.

Step 3: Click the ‘Search’ Button

You’ll see a list of existing trademarks that are either identical or closely resemble your entered name. This will help you understand whether your trademark is available, or if there might be conflicts or risks of objection.

Step 4: Review the Results

Based on the results, you have two options:

Consult an IP Expert: If the name is already taken or there’s confusion, our IP lawyers can help you understand your options

Proceed to Register: If the name looks clear, you can directly start the trademark registration process with Vakilsearch in just a few clicks.

Step 5: Decide Your Next Move

When you check trademark names using the public search, it’s important to avoid common mistakes that may cause conflicts later. Here are key points to consider during a brand registry search:

Spelling variations – Look for minor changes (e.g., ‘Xpress’ vs ‘Express’) that may still cause objections.

Translations & transliteration – Check local language versions of your trademark name availability.

Similar logos or designs – Even if the wordmark is different, similar logo trademarks may create conflicts.

Overlapping classes – A brand in a related or allied class could still block your application.

Pending or opposed marks – Watch out for trademarks under objection or opposition as they may affect approval.

Things to Look Out for When Checking Trademark Availability

If you're unsure how to apply, which class to choose, or how to respond to objections, it’s wise to hire a professional. They can provide support from search to filing, help you avoid errors, and ensure your trademark is properly noted in the relevant system.
