World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) has launched an On-line Tool to Assist in Filing International Trademark Applications. This tool was launched on 20th December 2010. The tool is called as Madrid System Goods & Services Manager. It will help trademark applicants in compiling the list of goods and services that must be submitted when filing an international application under the Madrid System for the International Registration of Marks.
This tool can be accessed through the WIPO GOLD portal and gives access to thousands of standard terms classified in accordance with the 9th edition of the International Classification of Goods and Services for the Purposes of the Registration of Marks. Applicants using the tool can select the terms that best describe the goods and services relating to the mark. The tool is available in the three working languages of the Madrid system, namely English, French and Spanish, and gives access to some 30,000 terms in English and their equivalents in French and Spanish. WIPO website reports that other language versions of the tool are currently under preparation in cooperation with the trademark offices of other Madrid Union members. The tool may be accessed at www.wipo.int/gsmanager
