According to the trademark examination criteria, a trademark does not constitute a similar trademark if its pronunciation is similar, but its meaning, shape or overall appearance are obviously different, and it is not easy for the relevant public to misunderstand the source of goods or services.
So what is a similar trademark? "Similar trademark" refers to a trademark that has certain differences in pronunciation, vision, meaning or arrangement order and overall structure of the constituent elements of the trademark, such as words, figures, graphics, three-dimensional signs or color combinations, but is difficult to distinguish and easy to cause confusion.
Therefore, whether trademark registration words with different sounds can be registered depends on the specific trademark name. It is recommended to conduct professional query on the trademark before application.
