If you can't find what you're looking for, don't hesitate to get in touch. There's no such thing as a question too small when it comes to protecting your brand.
What is a trade mark?
A trade mark is a word, logo, slogan or any other sign you use (or plan to use) on your goods or services so people can instantly tell they're yours and not someon else's. It's how you stand out in the marketplace and help customers recognise your stuff at a glance.
Why should I register a trade mark?
Once you've officially registered a trade mark, you're the only one who can use that mark - unless you give someone else permission. Those exclusive rights generally only apply to the exact goods or services you registered your trade mark for.
How long will it take to register my trade mark in Australia?
At least 7 months from application to registration.
Does my registration protect me around the world?
No. Each trade mark registration is on a country-by-country (e.g. UK, New Zealand), or sometimes on a region-by-region, basis (e.g. all member states of the EU).
Is it the same cost if I select multiple goods/services in the same class?
Yes. Multiple goods/services in the same class don't add cost; extra classes do.
Can Plummark help me register a trade mark in other countries like the US or EU?
Yes. While our self-serve platform currently supports Australia, New Zealand and the UK, we also offer managed trade mark filing support in other countries, including the US and EU. Tell us where you need protection and we will guide you through the process and handle the paperwork.

Am I protected worldwide?
No. Each trade mark registration is on a country-by-country (e.g. UK, New Zealand), or sometimes on a region-by-region, basis (e.g. all member states of the EU).
What's the cost for multiple goods?
Multiple goods/services in the same class don't add cost; extra classes do.
How can Plummark help overseas?
