Key Aspects of a Trademark Assignment

Formal Transfer of Ownership:

Unlike a trademark license, which only grants permission to use a mark, an assignment completely conveys ownership of the trademark.

Written Agreement:

The assignment must be documented in a written trademark assignment agreement.

Consideration:

The transfer of ownership must be for proper and adequate "consideration," which is a form of payment or compensation for the rights being transferred.

Goodwill:

The assignment can include the goodwill of the business associated with the trademark or can be done without it.

Registered and Unregistered Trademarks:

Both registered and unregistered trademarks can be assigned.

Formal Recording:

The assignment must be recorded with the national trademark registry by filing the appropriate forms (e.g., Form TM-P in India) and providing supporting documentation.
