Preliminary search is a check of your intellectual property object (trademark, patent) for conflicting objects in international registries (WIPO, EU, EAEU, USPTO). When necessary, we engage verified local partners to check individual registries. Helps assess chances of successful registration before filing application.

Search allows identifying potential registration obstacles in advance, avoiding registration refusal, saving time and money, and getting recommendations for object refinement to increase registration chances.

Trademarks, patents, utility models, industrial designs are checked in international databases (WIPO, EU, EAEU, USPTO, EPO). Similar and identical objects that may become registration obstacles are analyzed.

Standard search takes 3-5 business days. Urgent search - 1-2 days. Timeframe depends on object complexity and volume of databases checked.

The opinion includes description of found conflicting objects, similarity degree assessment, registration refusal risk analysis, recommendations for object refinement, and registration prospects assessment.

In most cases, yes. We provide recommendations for object changes (name, design refinement), Nice class selection, registration strategy that will help avoid conflicts and increase chances of successful registration.

Yes, we conduct identity and similarity analysis up to confusion degree. Not only fully identical objects are checked, but also those that may cause consumer confusion. Analysis is conducted considering visual, phonetic, and semantic similarity.

Search can be conducted both for specified Nice classes and across all 45 International Classification classes. We recommend extended search to identify all potential conflicts, especially if activity expansion is planned in the future.
