Registration in Foreign Countries
American owners of trade-marks who expect to do business in foreign countries should not neglect the registration of their trade-marks abroad. A failure to observe this precaution has led, in some cases, to a situation where the American owner, entering the foreign field, found his trade-mark already appropriated. The trade-mark laws of various foreign countries differ greatly, in some instances, from the United States law. A manufacturer who desires to do business in a foreign country should consult a trade-mark attorney who specializes in foreign trade-mark registration and protection, and be guided by his advice.
