Preliminary screen

What name are you thinking of using?

One name at a time. Screening is per name, because the answer depends on what else is registered near that exact word.

Nothing is published. The name is not sent to any search engine as a search you can be identified by.

What does the business do?

This decides which trademark classes get screened, and a mark only conflicts within its classes. A sentence is enough — as you type, the classes it maps to appear below.

Stored with the check, and the agent reads it: what the site actually sells decides which classes matter.

Which markets matter?

Choosing EU-wide searches all 27 national offices, not only the EU register — a prior national mark can ground an opposition.

Markets outside the EU

The US register is screened on every check and reported separately, because a US mark affects expansion rather than an EU launch.

Ready to screen.

This is what gets searched. Go back to change any of it.
