How can I conduct a search to see if a trademark is already registered?

To start, identify the class you want to register your trademark in. Use our Trademark Class Search tool by entering your product or service to find the appropriate class or classes.

Once you have your class(es), use our Trademark Search engine or visit your country's Trademark Office to conduct the search.

When searching, experiment with different variations of your name. For instance, if searching for AMAZON, also try AMASON, HAMAZON, or similar variations. Explore various combinations of words and spellings.

Trademark searches can be complex and time-consuming. If you're short on time or experience, our company offers a Trademark Study service. This study provides details on potential classes for registration, lists identical and similar trademarks, and includes an attorney's recommendation on registration possibilities and trademark usage.
