In this post we talk about:<\/p>
According to the Australian law, a mark can be a letter, word, name, signature, number, phrase, shape, logo, picture, aspect of packaging<\/strong> or combination of these elements.<\/p>\n One application can cover more classes of goods and\/or services<\/strong>. We remind you that also Australia has adopted the Nice Classification<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n After the filing of trademark application<\/strong><\/a>, the Australian Trademark Office takes about three or four months for the exam of the application<\/strong>, though it is possible to obtain expedited examination if required.<\/p>\n If the trademark application does not meet the legislative requirements, the Examiner will send the applicant a report explaining the application\u2019s problems<\/strong>. On the contrary, if a \u201cNotice of Acceptance<\/strong><\/em>\u201d is issued, the application will be published and third parties will have two months from the date of publication to oppose the registration of the trademark<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n If registration of the trademark is not opposed, the trademark will proceed to registration after the registration fees are paid.<\/p>\nTrademark filing and registration of a trademark in Australia<\/span><\/h2>\n
