Trademark infringement
For alleged trademark infringement, preserve the registration, relevant goods/services, disputed commercial use and dated evidence.
Türkiye: practical decision and evidence
For alleged trademark infringement, preserve the registration, relevant goods/services, disputed commercial use and dated evidence. Consider scope and statutory limitations before demanding removal. An ordinary mention of a name is not automatically infringing trademark use.
Worked file: a website mentions a mark in a product comparison. Preserve context and relevant registrations and examine commercial use, goods/services and limitations. Distinguish a protected-interest concern from a proven violation before requesting removal; any name mention is not automatically infringing.
What trademark registration protects
A trademark distinguishes goods or services and is registered for a defined sign and scope. Choose the owner and wording from actual business activity. Registering a company name or website alone does not obtain trademark registration for every product.
Evidence of genuine trademark use
Collect genuine-use evidence showing time, territory, goods/services and commercial use of the mark. Link invoices, packaging, advertising and sales records to the relevant period. An isolated screenshot without context may not establish the claimed use.
Likelihood of confusion
Confusion is assessed through the signs, goods/services, relevant consumers and the overall impression. Prepare a comparison showing similarities and meaningful differences. A shared letter or a numerical similarity score alone does not establish the legal result.
Official filing and support
This guidance concerns Turkish rights unless a section expressly names another jurisdiction. Kayra can coordinate research, document preparation and follow-up. Registration, opposition and grant decisions belong to the competent office. Verify any required representative’s registration and authority before appointing them; court proceedings require appropriately qualified legal representation. The enquiry form requests consultancy, and does not itself file an official application.
