High Score Award: When applying for trademark registration, do I need to apply separately for the icon and text?

You can apply in combination or separately.

If the text and graphics are applied together, then this is a trademark. If you apply for text and graphics separately, then there are two trademarks, one text trademark and one graphic trademark.

Cost: Combination application can save trademark registration fees.

Disadvantages of combined application: The risk of application is very high. The Trademark Office still examines the trademark separately, once for text and once for pattern, to see if there are any identical or similar marks before. If the text part is not passed or the graphics part is not passed. The overall image of the trademark will be rejected.

Combined trademarks are inconvenient to use. Even if the registration is successful, you cannot change the graphic of the logo when using it. For example, one day you suddenly find that it is inappropriate to place this text part on the left and want to place it on the right. This is not allowed because they are integrated and the logo of the trademark cannot be changed.

If you apply separately, there will be no such problems. It is recommended that if you do not consider the trademark registration fee, you can choose to register separately.
