It is not obligatory to examine the registration capacity before the trade mark application, but it is prudent to instruct the professional to carry out a mark which includes an analysis of the marks reported in the international, regional and national system Protection in Poland. The purpose of the search is to detect the marks constituting an obstacle (the sign which is the subject of the notification) of the mark which has been notified or used. The evaluation of the mark is carried out on the basis of several criteria including relative and absolute registration impediments, identical names are investigated, as well as confusingly similar, including a combination of suffixes, prefixes, additives Phonetics, homonyms, synonyms, names having a similar core. Benefits of the Trade mark examination:

  • Assessment of the possibility of obtaining protection on the trade mark. On the basis of the results obtained, it is possible to determine the chances of the patent office being granted protection law,
  • Information about the threat of violating other characters.
  • Receipt of instructions for making the necessary changes to the mark or the list of goods in order to obtain protection.

The registered capacity test for the mark does not give 100% certainty of protection.
