Canada’s Leading Trademark Registration Service

Well-known trademarks are marks that have widespread recognition in Canada, even if not registered. Such marks receive stronger protection under Canadian law, making it harder for others to use similar marks that could confuse consumers. Examples include globally recognized brands and logos.

In Canada, you file a trademark application through the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO). The application must include your trademark, a list of the goods or services it will cover, and payment of the applicable fee. Trademark Signers assists you in preparing and submitting this application correctly the first time.

You'll need to provide your name and address, a clear image or representation of your trademark (logo, wordmark, or slogan), and a description of the associated goods or services. If you claim prior use, you may need evidence to support that claim. Trademark Signers guides you through collecting and organizing all required documents.

Registering a trademark in Canada gives you exclusive rights to use your mark nationwide in connection with your products or services. It deters others from copying your brand, strengthens your legal position if infringement occurs, and builds consumer trust in your brand. It’s a key step to protecting your business identity.

To maintain your trademark rights in Canada, always use your trademark as it appears in your registration. Use the ® symbol once your mark is officially registered. Monitor the market for potential misuse and enforce your rights if needed. Proper use keeps your registration valid and protects your brand reputation.
