Your trade mark symbol is how you have decided to associate with your company or product. Trademarks are categorized under three main areas. There is the unregistered trademark that is used to promote a product or brand goods with the use of the symbol (TM). Then there is the symbol (SM) that represents an unregistered service mark that is associated to promote a brand service. A registered trade mark is the capital R with a circle around it. All of these are in supersubscript size lettering.

By registering your trade mark, you or your company are the only ones that can legally use it. If another individual or company uses it, then it is considered a trade mark infringement and legal proceedings can commence where you can stop the other party from using it, and at times, collect punitive damages.

The oldest known trademark symbol is the SPQR. This was the symbol that was engraved on every sword used by the Roman Empire since 500 BC. The oldest trademark in the United Kingdom is the Bass Red Triangle. This was the first trademark to be registered under the Trademark Registration Act of 1875.

A trademark is considered a form of property by having them officially registered at the appropriate offices for the country where it is to be used. To maintain the rights to a registered trademark, the company or person that owns it must use it. If a trademark has not been used in more than 5 years, the registration is canceled and another party may claim it.

A trade mark symbol is to uniquely identify your product or service so the public will know instantly what it represents.
