What is the trade mark CLASS?
The classification for a trademark is divided
into 45 different classes. Trademark applications can be filed in more than one
class if the business's activity involves various goods or services falling
under different trademark classifications. When filing a trademark registration
application, it is important to choose the right class of the trademark as the
mark's wrong classification can hamper the registration process. Trademark only
includes exclusivity for the mark's use concerning the class of goods or
services for which the trademark is registered. Use our efilingcompany site to
find the correct trademark class for your goods or service from over 80,000
