Watch Out For
Trademark Filer Scams!

Many business owners are victims of trademark filing scams. There has been a rise in trademark filing companies that offer low fees—THB3,900—for filing your trademark.

You must know that these filing services are not provided by licensed lawyers but by regular employees with no experience or qualifications.

Business owners message us every day, reporting that their trademark got rejected or the company ignored the business owner after the invoice was paid.

Business owners receive office action or rejection from DIP because trademark filer companies make many mistakes.
They are not IP lawyers.

Hidden Fees
The low initial quote is just the hook to get clients. Once you have paid the fees, you will be charged hidden fees for office actions or minor corrections to your application, sometimes up to THB 15,000 extra!

No Experience That Causes Mistakes
Your trademark application is handled by people who have never stepped into a courtroom. They are not a licensed lawyer and make mistakes in the applications they file.

Unreported Office Actions
Critical communications from the DIP (Thai trademark office) are not reported to the business owner. Without timely and proper responses, your application is at risk of being abandoned, meaning you have to re-file your application.

The Most Common Questions.

What is a trademark?

A trademark is any word, phrase, symbol, or design that identifies and distinguishes the source of the goods and services. The word "Coca-Cola", the phrase "Just Do It", the apple logo of "Apple", and the design of McDonald's "Golden Arches" are all examples of trademarks.

Why register a trademark?

Every business owner understands the importance of standing out. Registering your trademark plays an important role in distinguishing your products and services in a crowded market. Here are the top 3 reasons why registering your trademark is a must for any forward-thinking business owner:

1. Every business owner puts their heart and soul into building their brand and reputation. Registering your trademark gives you exclusive rights to your brand.

2. By registering your trademark, you can prevent competitors or copycats from using or harming your brand.

3. Having your trademark registered helps build and enhance customer loyalty and trust in your brand.

How long does it take to get approved?

The timeline for registering your trademark varies between countries and is a timely process. Usually, the process takes between 4 and 18 months. While it may seem like a long wait, it is important to note that the filing date of your application is more important than the registration date. You will gain priority over anyone applying for an identical/similar trademark after you.

When will the protection start?

Depending on the country, trademark protection may be valid from the filing date or the registration date. For example, in Thailand, Australia, Singapore, the European Union, or the United Kingdom, trademark protection is valid from the filing date (provided your application is approved for registration), and you will get protection counting back from the filing date. Whereas in China, Japan, or the United States, it is from the registration date.

What are the costs for trademark registration?

The price for trademark registration varies from one country to another. Request your personalized proposal below.

Service fee
This is what we charge for our expertise, time, and efforts to handle your trademark registration. The service fee depends on the specifications and complexity of your application and the required expertise to handle it.

Government fee‍
These fees must be paid to the trademark office to process and examine your trademark application. The amount depends on the country and may increase if you register more than one class of goods or services or have many items listed.

When to register a trademark?

It is best to register your trademark as soon as you finalize your brand and logo to avoid future legal complications and the need for rebranding. Simply start with national registration to keep protection costs low while establishing a solid foundation for your business to expand globally. As you grow your business and enter international markets, ensure your trademark is filed to protect your brand from unauthorized use and competitive threats.

How many years will the registration be valid?

The initial protection term is 10 years from the filing date and renewable indefinitely.

Claim color or file in black and white?

Depending on the country, claiming color in a trademark may limit the owner's rights to using the trademark only in that color. In some countries, filing a black and white trademark provides broader protection, as it is deemed to cover all colors.

On the other hand, if the colors of your logo are key elements, for example, if your customers recognize your brand because of specific colors, then it may be more suitable to claim the colors of your logo. However, in some countries, claiming colors is not possible.
