Can any correction be made in the application or register?
Corrections can be made to a trademark application or register, but they are subject to specific rules and procedures. Minor errors, such as typographical mistakes or incorrect applicant details, can typically be corrected through a formal request to the Trademark Registry. Changes to the trademark representation, applicant’s name or address, or certain aspects of the goods or services can also be amended, provided these adjustments do not alter the core nature of the application or registration.
However, substantial changes, such as altering the trademark itself or the list of goods and services in a way that significantly changes the scope, may not be allowed. Requests for corrections must be made in a timely manner, and certain amendments may require formal approval from the Registry. Ensuring that the initial application is accurate can help minimize the need for corrections later on.
