The trademark register allows for the registration and maintenance of two type of Marks:

  • Trademark – The word, name, symbol, device or any combination of words, names, symbols or devices used by a person to identify and distinguish the goods made or sold by that person, including a unique product from those manufactured or sold by others and to indicate the source of the goods, even if that source is unknown.
  • Service mark – The mark used to identify a service rather than a product. A service mark differs from a trademark in that the mark is used for the advertising of services rather than on the packaging or delivery of the service.
