In a bid to improve the convenience of applicants in TM5 member countries, the TM5 Partners aimed to provide information on how TM5 members describe goods and services by collecting and comparing each jurisdiction’s examination guidelines on acceptable identifications of goods and services and databases related thereto, thereby protecting stakeholders from unnecessary expenses and time consumption as well as delay of attainment of trademark rights arising from the incorrect identification of goods and services.
