A. If you register a trade mark your registered rights are for that mark as filed i.e. in black and white.

However, your infringement rights extend to similar marks so protection may extend to other colour combinations. Q. Can I register a name without a logo as a trade mark? A. The Act allows any sign to be registered. Most registered trade marks are words, logos or combinations of both. Words and letters may be registered on their own or with logos. Q.
