Non-compliance with Legal Requirements: If the application does not meet the formal requirements set by the Trademarks Act, such as incomplete information or incorrect classifications, it can lead to an objection.
Prohibited Signs or Symbols: Marks that include symbols, flags, or emblems of national or international significance without authorization are objectionable.
Similarity to Existing Marks: If your trademark closely resembles an existing registered trademark or pending application, it might be deemed too similar, leading to an objection. This ensures that there is no confusion among consumers.
Importance of Accurate Trademark Forms and Applicant Details: Using the wrong form or providing inaccurate information about the applicant can cause non-compliance with procedural requirements and create issues with the validity of the trademark. Accurate and complete forms including your name and address details are essential.
