If you’re planning to register a trademark in the UAE, understanding the classification system is non-negotiable. The UAE follows the Nice Classification, which divides trademarks into 45 distinct classes—each representing a specific category of goods or services.
✅ Choosing the wrong class can lead to:
- Rejection of your application
- Exposure to legal disputes
- Limited protection for your brand
✅ Choosing the right class ensures:
- Full legal protection
- Strategic brand positioning
- Smooth business setup and expansion
Whether you’re launching a tech startup, a fashion label, or a consultancy, the trademark class you select will shape your brand’s legal footprint in the UAE and beyond.
