7 reasons for a German trademark
| 1 | Your trademark – a valuable asset for your organization |
In the curent economy, trademarks are valuable assets for organizationsof any size. Trademark registration ensures the exclusivity of your mark, distinguishes you from your competitors, and enables you to license it to third parties.
| 2 | Protection of investments |
If you forfeit trademark research and registration when you are e.g. starting your business or marketing your products or your products, and you later on find out that a third party already used this or an almost identical trademark,such a party has therfore a sronger claim. You then run the risk that you need to change your (Already in use) name, your printed materials, your online presence, and all other promotional materials, as well as to destroy all products that bear the trademark.
Furthermore, the holder of the older trademark can claim damages.
| 3 | Countrywide protection |
Germany is the largest economy and largest trading partner of the United States within the EU. By registering your German trademark, you protect your trademark in this key market. You gain the nation-wide exclusive right to use your trademark in business. No other organization is allowed to use your trademark in Germany.
| 4 | Worldwide recognition |
German trademarked products have an excellent reputation worldwide. By registering a German trademark, you do not only show in Germany, that your products meet the high quality expectations of the German market.
| 5 | Prevention of import of pirated products through confiscation at the border |
Based on your German trademark, you can prevent the import of counterfeit products at the German border by Customs and thus prevent these counterfeit goods from entering the German market.
| 6 | Successful action against domain hijackers |
If a domain hijacker registered your trademark as a domain name, you can prove with your Community Trademark that you have superior rights to the trademark. Via the ICANN arbitration the domain can be transferred quickly and cost effectively, regardless in which country of the world the domain grabber is situated.
| 7 | Effective legal protection |
When it comes to a legal dispute about your brand or a similar trademark, the trial court dealing with the infringement is bound to rule in favor of your registered trademark.
Your opponent is therefore prevented from raising a number of objections. They can e.g., not claim that you were not the rightful holder of the mark, that your mark is not sufficiently distinctive, or that it is not otherwise eligible for protection.
The registered trademark gives you the right to claim damages from an infringer, even in the form of a license fee or compensation for infringement profits.
