A comprehensive guide to Class 19 of the Trademark Filing Classification. Trademarks must be applied or registered under classes and each class represents a distinct class of goods or services. In this post, we comprehensively cover the goods which fall under Class 19 of trademark classification.

Trademark Class 19
