Thailand classifies goods and services according to Nice Edition 8th.
Thailand uses the Vienna Classification to classify the figurative elements of marks.
Each device term may then be used as a search criteria,either singularly or in combination,in order to locate marks with similar device characteristics.
This process is performed manually,largely because applicants are not obliged to use pre-defined classification terms.(NICE and Office Determinations).
There is no obligation for applicants to use pre-defined terms.
Classification of goods and/or services can be searched for by using the "CD of lists of goods and services",which stores the names of goods and/or services previously adopted.This CD is also used to confirm the classification of designated goods and/or services that are described in filing documents.
The Vienna Classification showing figure elements is used for figure classification,and is granted as a search code for retrieving the figure trademarks.
