45 categories

Currently, my country adopts the "one mark, multiple categories" trademark system. Trademark registration applicants can apply to register the same trademark for multiple categories of goods through one application. , but as the number of registered trademark categories increases, the difficulty of trademark registration, registration costs, and trademark maintenance costs are also getting higher and higher.

Under normal circumstances, it is enough to register a trademark category that is consistent with your main business. However, if you want to protect your brand more effectively, firstly, you can check the scope of your business and classify the trademarks you may have in the future. All businesses involved must be carefully considered for trademark registration; the second is to register trademarks for all business projects in the same industry belonging to different trademark categories.
