What is a classification?

A trade mark must contain a list of the goods and/or services it is going to be used on. This is done using a classification system that is made up of 45 categories, called classes. 'Goods' can be found in classes 1 to 34 and 'Services' in 35 to 45.

If you do not know which class(es) the goods or service are in, you may wish to use the classification search tool TMclass to help you decide which classes you should use in this search.
