Overview
A trademark objection occurs when a trademark application is challenged or opposed by a trademark office or a third party. A trademark may be objected under section 11 due to various reasons, such as similarity to existing trademarks, lack of distinctiveness, or use of prohibited terms. When a trademark office issues an objection, the applicant is notified and given an opportunity to respond. The applicant can argue against the objection, provide evidence of distinctiveness, or amend the application to address the concerns raised. If the objection is upheld, the application may be refused, but the applicant usually has the right to appeal the decision.

Frequently Asked Questions
A trademark objection is a formal challenge to the registration of a trademark that you believe is too similar to your own, potentially causing confusion in the marketplace.
Filing an objection helps protect your brand identity, ensuring no one else can register a confusingly similar trademark that could dilute your brand’s reputation.
If a new trademark is similar to yours and could lead to consumer confusion, it’s worth considering an objection. Consulting with a trademark attorney can provide clarity.
Outcomes can include the rejection of the new trademark application, approval of the application, or a settlement agreement between both parties.
Typically, you have 30 days from the date of receipt of the objection notice to respond. Failing to respond within this time frame can lead to the abandonment of your application.
