File Description [top]

The TRADEMARKSCAN® - Community Trademarks (File 227) database is produced by Thomson CompuMark. The Community Trademark (CTM) was instituted in April 1996 by the Office of Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM) of the European Union. It allows an applicant to file a single trademark application and obtain trademark protection in each of the member states of the European Union.

Like other TRADEMARKSCAN files, TRADEMARKSCAN - Community Trademarks serves principally as a preliminary screening tool and should not be used as the sole basis for clearing a new name or for filing a trademark application. If a trademark is not found in the database, it does not necessarily mean that the trademark is available for use. Registration does, however, confer the exclusive right to the use of a trademark and offers a greater degree of protection from infringement.

TRADEMARKSCAN - Community Trademarks features full records that contain the trademark, application and registration numbers, international class(es), status, goods/services description, current owner, dates, and other pertinent information. Trademarks can be searched as phrases (ET=), as whole words or word beginnings in the Basic Index, or as word fragments or word endings in the rotated index (TR=). Trademark design/logo images can be located by restricting a search with RT=IMAGE. Color images are provided when available. Other information about the mark such as Design Type (DT=), Lining/Color Claims (PH=), Design Phrase (PH=), Notes (NT=), and Vienna/Design Codes (VC=) are also included.

TRADEMARKSCAN - Community Trademarks can be searched individually or in conjunction with other trademark file(s). Search and display fields have been standardized as much as possible for use in cross-file searching. The OneSearch category, TMKS, covers all trademark databases. The category, EUROTMKS, covers the International Register, Community Trademarks, and the European, Scandinavian, and Central European trademark databases.

1 Use the Basic Index to search complete words, compound words, or word beginnings, e.g., S KEY?. Use the rotated index TR= to search word fragments, or word endings, e.g., TR=MAIL?. Since punctuation is stripped for trademark searching, use the AND operator instead of the (W) operator for the most comprehensive retrieval. Search compound words as the whole word and as its parts, e.g., S KEYMAIL? OR (KEY AND MAIL?).

2 Since trademarks are not cross-referenced, for the most comprehensive retrieval, alternative spellings should be SELECTed either in the Basic Index, e.g., SELECT HARBOR OR HARBOUR OR HAVRE or in the Rotated Trademark index, e.g., SELECT TR=(HARBOR? OR HARBOUR? OR HAVRE?).

3 In a REPORT which includes date fields, NA will appear when the requested date information is not available. Trademark and owner names longer than 32 characters are truncated in REPORT displays.

4 Named Company includes Owner (ON= and OW=), and Agent/Correspondent, (LR=).

5 Goods /Services (GS=) are often provided in many of the languages supported by OHIM. To restrict a Goods/Services search to a particular language, e.g. English, SELECT GS=ENGLISH. Some records, such as unpublished applications, are provided in the orignal language only. In those records, English language translations are available for display only. Since the translations are computer-generated, they may not be reliable or complete.

6 Historical Information is not searchable but does include additional information regarding status changes pertaining to the trademark.

7 Notes (NT=), Design Phrase (PH=), and Lining/Color Claims (PH=) are often provided in multiple OHIM languages. A search can be restricted to English language terms in these fields by including the search term, e.g., SELECT PH=ENGLISH.

8 Only the Last Reported Owner is provided for this file.

9 Records containing trademark images can be located by including RT=IMAGE in the search. Images display when searches are conducted using DialogLink5, Dialog Classic on the Web, or DialogWeb. Depending on the source, images may be in color or black and white.

10 Seniority under Community Trademark (CTM) Regulations allows the owner of a new CTM registration to claim seniority in one or more European Union countries, as the senior of an earlier national trademark.

11 When searching word fragments in the Rotated Trademark index (TR=), use the @ character to indicate the end of a word, e.g., TR=MAIL@. To retrieve an embedded fragment, use the question mark, e.g., TR=AIL?. Multiple TR= fragments can be combined with AND for the most comprehensive retrieval.
