How we classify goods and services

Classification guide of goods and services

When you apply to register a trade mark you must include a list of all goods and services that you will use the mark on. Use this guide to identify the class or classes your goods or services fall in.

Cross-searching

We search our register and records for earlier marks which may conflict with your mark. We will only look in classes that may contain the same or similar goods or services to those in your application. Our cross-search list sets out those classes in which we would normally consider searching.
