Instructions
Step 1
The label, as a rule, consists of verbal, pictorial or volumetric designations. When creating it, keep in mind that it must be unique, not similar to existing trademarks. Depict on your logo what really characterizes your product. The name of a trademark may not contain the name or surname of a well-known literary figure, as well as the name of state, international organizations.
Step 2
Develop multiple labels (just in case), as it is possible that the logo you created already exists. And most importantly, follow all the requirements so that the registering authority has no doubts that this is your trademark.
Step 3
Use the international classifier of goods and services. Determine the list of products that will be sold under the created label. Distribute the goods by class. Do it correctly, otherwise you will have to register your logo more than once.
Step 4
Determine who will be the legal representative of the label. You can register it in your own name (company) or to another enterprise that will be engaged in the production of goods in the future. Please note that if you decide to make another organization the copyright holder, then conclude a licensing agreement with it.
Step 5
Fill out an application for registering a label. Its form is approved by the order of Rospatent No. 32. Enter in it the applicant's personal data or the name of the organization that will be the copyright holder of the logo. Indicate the address of the place of residence of the individual or the address of the location of the company.
Step 6
Enter a description of the label in the application. Indicate the type of logo (volumetric, verbal, sound, light, etc.), quantity, semantic meaning (of the label and its individual elements, if it consists of several parts). Write a list of products that the developed logo will represent.
Step 7
Submit the completed application to Rospatent. Attach to it the constituent documents of the enterprise, the charter of the collective logo (if several organizations will use it), a receipt for payment of the state duty.
