Headings of International Trademark Classes

International trademark classification, and the headings

of the international trademark classes, are established by the Committee of Experts

of the Nice Union and set forth in the

International Classification of Goods

and Services for the Purposes of the Registration of Marks

(Nice

Classification) published annually by the World Intellectual Property Organization

(WIPO) on its website.  See

TMEP

§1401.02(c)

for further information.

In 2013, the Committee of Experts began annual

revisions to the Nice Classification. The annual revisions, which are published

electronically and enter into force on January 1 each year, are referred to as

versions and identified by edition number and year of the effective date (e.g., "Nice

Classification, 10th edition, version 2013," "Nice 10-2013," or "NCL 10-2013"). Each

annual version includes all changes adopted by the Committee of Experts since the

adoption of the previous version. The changes consist of the addition of new goods

and services to and deletion of goods and services from the Alphabetical List, and

any modifications to the wording in the Alphabetical List, the class headings, and

the explanatory notes that do not involve the transfer of goods or services from one

class to another. New

editions

include all changes adopted

annually since the previous edition and version, as well as all amendments since the

previous edition. Amendments consist of goods or services transferred from one class

to another or new classes that are created. The 5th through the 10th Editions of the

Nice Agreement entered into force every five years. The 11th Edition of the Nice

Agreement remained in effect for six years. Beginning in 2023, new editions of the

Nice Agreement will be issued every three years.

GENERAL REMARKS

The indications of goods or services appearing in the

class headings are general indications relating to the fields to which, in principle,

the goods or services belong.  The Alphabetical List should therefore be consulted in

order to ascertain the exact classification of each individual product or

service.

Goods

If a product cannot be classified with the aid of the

List of Classes, the Explanatory Notes and the Alphabetical List, the following

remarks set forth the criteria to be applied:

elating to the fields to which, in principle,

the goods or services belong.  The Alphabetical List should therefore be consulted in

order to ascertain the exact classification of each individual product or

service.

Goods

If a product cannot be classified with the aid of the

List of Classes, the Explanatory Notes and the Alphabetical List, the following

remarks set forth the criteria to be applied:

(a) A finished product is in principle classified

according to its function or purpose.  If the function or purpose of a finished

product is not mentioned in any class heading, the finished product is

classified by analogy with other comparable finished products, indicated in the

Alphabetical List.  If none is found, other subsidiary criteria, such as that

of the material of which the product is made or its mode of operation, are

applied.

(b) A finished product which is a multipurpose

composite object (e.g., clocks incorporating radios) may be classified in all

classes that correspond to any of its functions or intended purposes. However

if a good has a primary purpose it should be classified in this class. If those

functions or purposes are not mentioned in any class heading, other criteria,

indicated under (a), above, are to be applied.

(c) Raw materials, unworked or semi-worked, are in

principle classified according to the material of which they consist.

(d) Goods intended to form part of another product

are in principle classified in the same class as that product only in cases

where the same type of goods cannot normally be used for another purpose.  In

all other cases, the criterion indicated under (a), above, applies.

(e) When a product, whether finished or not, is

classified according to the material of which it is made, and it is made of

different materials, the product is in principle classified according to the

material which predominates.

at product only in cases

where the same type of goods cannot normally be used for another purpose.  In

all other cases, the criterion indicated under (a), above, applies.

(e) When a product, whether finished or not, is

classified according to the material of which it is made, and it is made of

different materials, the product is in principle classified according to the

material which predominates.

(f) Cases adapted to the product they are intended to

contain are in principle classified in the same class as the product.

Services

If a service cannot be classified with the aid of

the List of Classes, the Explanatory Notes and the Alphabetical List, the

following remarks set forth the criteria to be applied:

(a) Services are in principle classified according to

the branches of activities specified in the headings of the service classes and

in their Explanatory Notes or, if not specified, by analogy with other

comparable services indicated in the Alphabetical List.

(b) Rental services are in principle classified in

the same classes as the services provided by means of the rented objects (e.g.,

Rental of telephones, covered by Cl. 38). Leasing services are analogous to

rental services and therefore should be classified in the same way. However,

hire- or lease-purchase financing is classified in Cl. 36 as a financial

service.

(c) Services that provide advice, information or

consultancy are in principle classified in the same classes as the services

that correspond to the subject matter of the advice, information or

consultancy, e.g., transportation consultancy (Cl. 39), business management

consultancy (Cl. 35), financial consultancy (Cl. 36), beauty consultancy (Cl.

44).  The rendering of the advice, information or consultancy by electronic

means (e.g., telephone, computer) does not affect the classification of these

services.

s the services

that correspond to the subject matter of the advice, information or

consultancy, e.g., transportation consultancy (Cl. 39), business management

consultancy (Cl. 35), financial consultancy (Cl. 36), beauty consultancy (Cl.

44).  The rendering of the advice, information or consultancy by electronic

means (e.g., telephone, computer) does not affect the classification of these

services.

(d) The means by which a service is rendered in

principle does not have any impact on the classification of the services. For

example, financial consultancy is classified in Cl. 36 whether the services are

rendered in person, by telephone, online, or in a virtual environment. However,

this remark does not apply if the purpose or result of a service changes due to

its means or place of delivery. This is the case, for example, when certain

services are rendered in a virtual environment. For instance, transport

services belonging to Cl. 39 involve the moving of goods or people from one

physical place to another. However, in a virtual environment, these services do

not have the same purpose or result and must be clarified for appropriate

classification, e.g., simulated travel services provided in virtual

environments for entertainment purposes (Cl. 41).

(e) Services rendered in the framework of

franchising are in principle classified in the same class as the particular

services provided by the franchisor (e.g., business advice relating to

franchising (Cl. 35), financing services relating to franchising (Cl. 36),

legal services relating to franchising (Cl. 45)).
