Is a regular trademark application enough? (EU trademark)

Question

Hi! We want to register a trademark with the OHIM. The online application seems rather easy, but I was wondering about the classes of goods and service we have to choose. The regular application includes three such classes ... Is this usually enough for a software startup? In what way do the classes which we register matter to our business?

Hi,
In addition to my colleagues' advice,, please note that you have to prepare a list of goods and services covering your present as well as potential future activities. The application can't be extended after filing! The classes merely serve to group the list of goods and services.
While the online filing itself is straightforward, it is the detailed knowledge of the legal requirements and professional experience that add value to a successful trademark.
Thus, in order to avoid disappointment, please consider to obtain assistance and/or representation for registering your trademark.
Best regards
