The Nice Agreement mainly stipulates the classification of goods and services, which divides goods into 34 categories and services into 8 categories, providing great convenience for trademark retrieval and trademark management.
According to the different business scope of our company and the different categories that need protection, we should choose the category that suits us and make corresponding protection. Of course, we can continue to choose the category to be protected after the trademark application.
However, if someone registers another category during this period, this category can no longer apply. Not applying for a new category is equivalent to applying for a new trademark. Therefore, it is recommended to do comprehensive category protection as much as possible to safeguard your rights and interests.
