What is a trademark?

A trademark can be a distinct symbol, phrase, word, pattern, or combination of these symbols that identify the origin of one party's goods or services in contrast to others. It serves as a valuable resource for businesses by providing legal protection and exclusive brand usage rights.

What is trademark class? 
According to the type of goods or services it represents, trademarks shall be classified according to different classes. A classification system known as Nice Classification has been established by the World Intellectual Property Organization, WIPO. There are 45 classes in this system, each of which corresponds to a particular category of goods or services. In order to effectively protect and register a trade mark, it is necessary to assign the trademark to an appropriate class.
