Advantages of Trademark Registration
By registering your Trademark you will be entitled to prevent all third parties not having your consent (in the course of trade) from;

- offering the goods, putting them on the market or stocking them for these purposes under that sign, or offering or supplying services thereunder;
- importing or exporting the goods under that sign;
- using the sign on business papers and in advertising.

Within this scope you may;          

- request cessation or prevention of the acts of infringement,
- request compensation for damages incurred,
- request the confiscation of the products and the equipment and machinery used to produce these products, those having infringed the trademark right, the production and the use which is a felony,
