Each country allocates a
level of respect to unregistered Trademarks. This varies from very little to
serious as in the USA.
In the UK if you have an
unregistered Trademark you are likely to be allowed to continue use in the area
where you have established goodwill. Example you have a restaurant in Bristol
and your regular customers come from a twenty mile radius. However someone has
obtained a registered UK Trademark for a similar or identical Trademark
covering restaurant services. The owner of the registration is going to be able
to prevent you opening another restaurant with the same name outside your
Bristol plus twenty mile area, unless you can persuade the tribunal to cancel
the registered Trademark. This is most unlikely unless you can show good
evidence of custom beyond Bristol.
A registered Trademark
gives you the right to use the letter R encircled next to your Trademark and
will carry a legal presumption that the Trademark is yours for the country in
question. You will also find that intellectual property insurance is more cost
effectively obtained. Additionally the authorities such as police and customs
may possibly assist in preventing misuse of your Registration.
