Can I apply for trademark registration if the pronunciation is the same and the word is different? There must be no similarity in trademark registration. Similarity will cause the trademark registration to fail and the application to be rejected. So, can some trademark registrations with the same pronunciation but different words pass the work registration? This question will be discussed by the consultants of the 06qizero Trademark Registration Network. It depends on the situation. If the trademark category you apply for is inconsistent with the registered trademark, the chance of passing is higher. However, if the trademark you apply for is consistent or similar to some famous or well-known trademarks, the Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce will review it. Your application may be rejected on the grounds of protecting a well-known trademark. It is recommended that you search the trademark online before applying. If not, you can find a trademark agency to apply on your behalf.
1. First, you need to confirm whether the category and group of the trademark to be registered are the same or similar to the category and group of the previously registered trademark. If the goods do not belong to the same type and the same group, then it is acceptable even if they use the same words to register (well-known trademarks are excluded);
2. If they are in the same type and the same group, if the pronunciation is the same, then It depends on the glyph and meaning to judge. Especially the meaning, if there is no obvious difference in the overall meaning, then the probability of being judged to be similar is very high. If the difference in meaning is obvious, it can still be passed. (If it has the same pronunciation as a well-known trademark, the chance of passing is very small).
