Determine what you want to trademark

There are two common types of trademarks you can apply for with Trademark Planet: a word trademark or an image trademark.

  • For a brand name, a  business name or a slogan, you’ll be applying for a word trademark.

  • For a logo or stylised words, you’ll be applying for an image trademark.

The application to register a trademark online is straightforward for both types of trademarks.

How to trademark a logo

An image trademark can protect a logo, which could be an image, stylised words, or a combination of an image with words.

Image trademark registrations protect the overall look and visual elements of the logos – they don’t provide specific protection for any word components in the same way that word trademark registrations do.
