First of all, the owner of the previously registered trademark could simply oppose the new registration , but not only that: he could also proceed with a request for damages or demand the possible withdrawal of products already on the market that use the trademark or the revision of previously signed agreements. The Italian Patent and Trademark Office in Rome (UIBM) does not carry out checks regarding the novelty of trademarks before registering them, but provides an online database on which to carry out an independent search. An excellent idea is to carry out the prior art Telegram Number Data search also at a European level, for example using the EUIPO database , i.e. the European Union Intellectual Property Office. The choice of classes based on the Nice Category This point is another of the most delicate points in the trademark registration procedure . In fact, always according to the art. 7 of the CPI, a particular trademark is protected only for specific products and/or services explicitly described in its registration application. In practice, it is necessary to establish a priori for which commercial categories, called "classes", you wish to register the trademark. It is the Nice International Agreement , in force since 1957 and desired by the World Intellectual Property Organization, that establishes these classes in order to provide common parameters for the registration of trademarks in the signatory states. There are 45 product classes in total and can be consulted online on the MISE website.
