What are the steps involved after filing a trademark application in Australia?

Once your trademark application is submitted, the Trademark Office will review it. They will check for things like descriptiveness, distinctiveness, and any conflicts with existing trademarks. If they find any issues, they will notify us, and we will need to respond. After this review, the application enters a publication period where others can challenge your trademark. If there are no objections, your trademark will be officially registered.
