According to Law No. 20 of 2016 article 1, a mark is a sign that can be displayed graphically in the form of an image, logo, word name, letter, number, color arrangement in the form of 2. (two) dimensions and/or 3 (three) dimensions, sound, hologram, or a combination of 2 (two) or more of these elements to differentiate goods and/or services produced by persons or legal entities in the activity of trading goods and/or services. Furthermore, the article also mentions the matter of trademarks. A trademark is a brand that is used on goods that are traded by a person or several people together or a legal entity to differentiate them from similar goods. Collective Mark is a mark used for trading activities of goods and/or services with the same characteristics which are traded by several persons or legal entities together to differentiate goods and/or services of other types.
