FAQs

Got questions?

We’ve got answers.

These are general guidelines; official rules and case-specific assessments apply.

Can I file without proof of use?

Most jurisdictions don’t require proof of use at filing, but later may ask for intent-to-use or declarations, and non-use for three years risks cancellation. Keep usage evidence early.

No guarantee, but it significantly lowers collision risks and optimizes class coverage—key for higher success rates.

How many classes should I file in?

Cover your core goods/services, consider defensive and adjacent classes. Avoid over-spread but don’t miss essentials.

Do I need to refile if my logo changes color/details?

If changes affect distinctiveness, file a new application. Color claims vs. black & white scope must also be considered.

Madrid or national filings?

Madrid is best for multi-country portfolios with centralized management. For strict-exam countries or those outside Madrid, national/regional filings are more suitable.
