Start With The Proposed Mark

The search begins with the name, word, logo, or other mark you want to protect. The owner details and a clear description of the goods or services give the search the right context.

Identify The Likely Class

Trademark classes follow the goods or services connected to the mark. Class identification helps define the application before it is filed with IPONigeria.

Understand The Result

A search is an early review, not a certificate or promise of approval. Its purpose is to surface possible conflicts and give you better information before filing.

Prepare For The Next Step

Send the proposed mark, owner details, and a description of the goods or services. The team can then explain the likely filing route and what needs to be prepared.
