A Guide to the Goods Covered by UAE Trademark Class 22

Businesses have to carefully wade through the selection of an appropriate class while conducting trademark registration in the UAE. The primary class you have selected indicates the goods or services your proposed mark represents. Filing your proposed trademark under the wrong class will create brand confusion and will adversely impact your brand enforcement strategies in the UAE.

For example, brands related to products such as ropes, bags, strings etc. need to be filed under the Class 22 of Nice Classification. However, the risk of choosing the wrong class is high as the Nice Classification List has 45 classes of goods and services. To complicate things further, certain similar products are listed in different classes. For instance, normal ropes are in Class 22 but the class doesn’t include metal ropes. Trademark agents in the UAE can help you avoid the risk of filing a trademark under the wrong class. Read ahead to know the goods covered by trademark Class 22:
