Classification of Goods and Services for Trademark Registration in Vietnam Under Nice Class

Trademarks play a crucial role in defining brand identity and ensuring exclusive rights to a business’s products and services. However, securing trademark protection requires proper classification of goods and services. Vietnam follows the Nice Classification (NCL) system, an internationally recognized method for organizing goods and services for trademark registration. This classification system, originally established in 1957 under the Nice Agreement, categorizes trademarks into 45 distinct classes, with Classes 1–34 covering goods and Classes 35–45 covering services.
