What is the difference between trademark filings and NICE classes?

A single trademark filing (application) can cover multiple NICE classes. Filings count the number of distinct applications a brand has submitted, while classes count the unique NICE categories those filings span. A brand with fewer filings but many classes is protecting its mark across a broader range of goods and services.

How many NICE classes are there?

There are 45 NICE classes in total: 34 classes for goods (classes 1–34) and 11 classes for services (classes 35–45). The Nice Classification is an international system used to categorize goods and services for trademark registration.

Filings vs. Classifications

A single trademark application (filing) can cover multiple NICE classes. For example, a tech company might file one application that covers Class 9 (software), Class 35 (advertising services), and Class 42 (cloud computing) all at once. On WikiTrademarks, filings counts the number of distinct applications a brand has submitted, while classes counts the number of unique NICE categories those filings span. A brand with 10 filings across 25 classes is casting a wider net than one with 10 filings across 3 classes.
