Yes. Registering a company name does not automatically protect your brand as a trade mark. A registered trade mark can provide exclusive rights to use your brand for the goods and services it covers, helping prevent others from using confusingly similar names.

Frequently Asked Question.
Find answers to common questions about our trademark, design, and copyright services, and learn how we can help protect and strengthen your intellectual property.
-
Do I need a trade mark if I have a company?
-
How long does UK trade mark registration take?Most uncontested UK trade mark applications take around 4 to 6 months from filing to registration. If the UKIPO raises objections or a third party files an opposition, the process may take longer depending on the circumstances.
-
Can I register my logo and business name?Yes. Your business name and logo protect different aspects of your brand. In many cases, filing separate applications for the word mark and the logo provides broader and more flexible protection.
