After the amendments of the rules made by World Trade Organization, trademark can be any visually and graphically presented sign; it can be made by words, personal names, letters, numerals, figurative elements, or colors or any combination of these. Trademark can also include the shape of the goods (eg. diagrams, text descriptions, etc.), but the sign must be capable of being represented graphically for documentation and publication. In order to increase the chance of successful registration, clients may try to provide a self-created design with unique, creativity and meaningless wordings.

We will prepare all required documents within 2 working days. Documents will be delivered to client for signature. The signed documents should be returned to our company with the payment. We will conduct the search to confirm if the proposed trademark is available for registration. If it is available, we will commence the process of application. If it is not available, we will suggest the client to revise the trademark and conduct a search again (the search fee is borne by the client); if the client decides to discontinue the application, we will refund the fee after deducting handling charge of HK$500 and government fees paid.
