What is the registration number for the Caring Transitions service mark in Canada?

According to the 2025 Caring Transitions Franchise Disclosure Document, the service mark CARING TRANSITIONS was registered with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office on November 12, 2010, with the registration number TMA782284. This registration provides Caring Transitions with legal protection for its brand name in Canada, preventing other businesses from using a similar name or logo in the estate and household liquidation and moving management services sector.

For a prospective franchisee, this Canadian registration offers assurance that the Caring Transitions brand is protected in the Canadian market. This protection can be valuable if the franchisee plans to expand their services into Canada or if they operate near the Canadian border. It also means that Caring Transitions franchisees operating in Canada have the legal right to use the CARING TRANSITIONS name and logo without fear of trademark infringement, provided they adhere to the franchisor's guidelines for trademark usage.

It is important for franchisees to understand the terms and conditions of trademark usage, as outlined in the FDD. Franchisees must use the marks according to Caring Transitions' rules and cannot use the name or marks as part of their corporate name or with unauthorized modifications. They also cannot register the name or mark as a service mark, trademark, or Internet domain name. Failure to comply with these rules could result in legal action or termination of the franchise agreement.
