Australian IP Search: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Use this free database to check if your brand name or idea is already registered before you invest in your business.
This is a free digital tool used to check if a brand name, logo, or idea has already been registered by someone else.
Who it's for
This tool is available to any business owner looking to protect their intellectual property.
What you get
You get access to a free database that allows you to search for existing trademarks or ideas. This helps you see if the brand name or concept you want to use is already taken by another person or company.
What it costs you
The service is free to use. Your only cost is the time required to perform the search yourself.
The catch to know
Doing a search does not guarantee that your trademark application will be approved by the government. The tool only shows you what is already registered; it does not provide legal certainty.
How to apply
- Visit the official search portal.
- Enter the name or details of the brand or idea you want to check.
- Review the list of existing results provided by the database.
