Know Your Registry
Which Trademark Registry Office Covers Assam?
Trademark applications are examined by one of five regional offices of the Trade Marks Registry, based on the applicant's principal place of business. Assam falls under the Kolkata office, the same regional office that handles the rest of Eastern and North-Eastern India. Filing itself happens online through the national portal, so this jurisdiction only determines which office examines your file.
Kolkata Jurisdiction
The Kolkata Office Also Covers:
- West Bengal
- Bihar & Jharkhand
- Odisha
- The other North-Eastern states
- Andaman & Nicobar Islands
Trade Marks Registry, Nizam Palace, 2nd MSO Building, 7th Floor, 234/4 A.J.C. Bose Road, Kolkata – 700020.
What This Means for You
You don't need to visit Kolkata in person — filing, examination replies, and status tracking all happen online, regardless of where in Assam your business is based.
We prepare and file your application correctly against this jurisdiction from the start, so nothing gets delayed over routing errors.
Beyond Assam
Assam Is the Commercial Gateway to the Rest of the Northeast
Guwahati functions as the trading, distribution, and logistics hub for the seven North-Eastern states. Many Assam-based brands don't stay local for long — they expand into Nagaland, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Tripura, Arunachal Pradesh, and Sikkim within a few years of launch. A Trademark Registered while you're still Assam-based protects your brand name in every one of these states automatically, since trademark rights are national, not regional.
Waiting until after you've expanded is the riskier order of operations — by then, a competitor in another North-Eastern state may already be using a similar name.

Assam's Business Landscape
Built for Assam's Tea, Oil, and Handloom Economy
Assam produces more than half of India's tea, sits on some of the country's oldest oil and gas fields around Digboi and Duliajan, and is home to a thriving handloom, bamboo, and silk economy centred on Sualkuchi and the Brahmaputra valley. As these industries turn into branded consumer products — packaged tea, silk garments, bamboo goods — a registered trademark becomes essential to selling them beyond the local market.

How It Works
How to Register Your Trademark from Assam
-
Trademark Availability Search
We check the national register to confirm your brand name or logo isn't already taken or too similar to an existing mark.
-
Class Selection
We map your business to the correct NICE classification class — especially important for tea, silk, and food businesses that often need multiple classes.
-
Application Filing by Attorney
A trademark attorney drafts and files your Form TM-A application, reducing the risk of avoidable objections at examination.
-
Acknowledgement & TM in 1 Day
You receive an official filing acknowledgement and can start using the TM symbol within a day — this establishes your filing date, not the final registration.
-
Examination by the Kolkata Office
If the examiner raises an objection, we draft and file the written reply within the deadline set by the Registry.
-
Certificate After Publication
Once your mark clears the four-month Journal publication period unopposed, the Registrar issues your Trademark Registration Certificate.
Checklist
Documents to Keep Ready

Logo or Wordmark File
A soft copy of your logo, if applying for a device mark, along with the exact brand name and tagline.
Proof of Prior Use
Invoices, packaging, or marketplace listings showing use of the brand within Assam or elsewhere, if claiming an earlier use date.
Form TM-48 Authorisation
A signed authorisation letting us file and track the application with the Kolkata Trade Marks Registry on your behalf.
Udyam / Startup Certificate
Needed to claim the concessional government fee available to MSMEs and DPIIT-recognised startups.
Common Confusion
A Trademark Is Not the Same as Assam's GI Tags
Assam is home to several products with Geographical Indication (GI) tags — but a GI tag protects a regional product category, not your individual business's brand name.
GI-Tagged Product
Assam (Orthodox) Tea
The GI tag protects the term "Assam Tea" for tea genuinely grown in the region — it doesn't give any single tea brand exclusive rights to a name like "Brahmaputra Gold" or similar.
GI-Tagged Product
Muga Silk of Assam
"Muga Silk" as a term is collectively protected for Assam-origin silk — individual weavers and brands still need their own trademark to own a specific product or brand name.
Your Brand
What You Actually Need
To stop a competitor from using your specific brand name, you need a trademark filed in your own name — a GI tag alone will not do this for you.
Why It Matters
What Registration Protects for You
Protection Across All Seven Sister States
A trademark registered while based in Assam is automatically protected nationwide — including every North-Eastern state you may expand into.
Legal Standing to Act
Take action against businesses that copy your brand name, whether they're in Guwahati or anywhere else in India.
A Transferable Business Asset
A registered mark can be licensed, franchised, or sold — turning your brand name into a real business asset, not just a label.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions on Trademark Registration in Assam
Which office examines trademark applications from Assam?
Applications from Assam are examined by the Kolkata office of the Trade Marks Registry, which also covers West Bengal, Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha, the other North-Eastern states, and Andaman & Nicobar Islands.
Does a trademark registered in Assam protect my brand in other North-Eastern states?
Yes. Trademark rights are national, not regional — a mark registered while your business is based in Assam is automatically protected across all of India, including every state you expand into later.
Is "Assam Tea" or "Muga Silk" already protected, so I don't need my own trademark?
No. Those are Geographical Indication (GI) tags that protect the regional product category collectively — they don't give any individual business exclusive rights to its own brand name. You still need a separate trademark for that.
What does "Acknowledgement & TM in 1 Day" mean?
Once your application is filed, you receive an official acknowledgement and can start using the TM symbol the same day. This establishes your filing date — it is not the final registration certificate, which follows after examination and publication.
What is the total cost to register a trademark in Assam?
The professional fee is ₹1,999 plus the government fee of ₹4,500 per class for individuals, MSMEs, and startups. Companies and LLPs may fall under a higher government fee slab.
Can a business in a smaller Assam town, like Sivasagar or Barpeta, apply?
Yes. Since the entire process is online, businesses from any city, town, or district in Assam can apply and are examined by the same Kolkata jurisdiction.
