## Summary

Run by the World Intellectual Property Organization, the Global Brand Database searches international trademarks under the Madrid System plus collections from participating national and regional offices, with brand name, owner, Nice class and image search. It is useful for checking a series or imprint name before selling in several Amazon stores at once. WIPO notes it is not a real-time copy of every register, so also search the national office for each country you care about and get legal advice for anything valuable.

## Pros

- Covers many countries in one search, including Madrid System marks
- Image similarity search for logos

## Cons

- National collections can lag behind the source registers
- Reports are limited to 180 records and bulk downloading is not allowed
