FAQ :

A trademark is a sign that can distinguish the goods or services of one enterprise from those of other enterprises and is protected by intellectual property rights.

No, a trademark registration only grants protection in the particular territory where it is registered. For global recognition, you need to apply for registration in other countries.

The Madrid System, introduced by WIPO, is a cost-effective, global, and efficient system for obtaining trademark registration in various countries through a single application.

You can use the Madrid System if you have a connection with its member countries, such as being domiciled, having a commercial establishment, or being a citizen of a member country.

To file a Madrid trademark application in India, you must be an Indian national or have a place of business in India. You also need an existing trademark application (basic application) and must select one or more Madrid System member countries for protection.
