Service mark (English)

Japanese: サービス・マーク(英語表記)service mark
Service mark (English)
A service mark is a mark used by a person who provides a service as a business, rather than selling goods, in order to distinguish the service he or she provides from that of others. These marks are known as service marks. Examples include advertising, finance and insurance, real estate transactions, construction and repair, communications, transportation and storage of goods, processing of goods, education and entertainment, and other businesses such as restaurants, hotels, and medical care. Service marks have become important with the development of the tertiary industry, and were first protected by a registration system in the United States under the Trademark Act in 1946. Most countries, including the Philippines, South Korea, France, and Germany, also protect service marks through a registration system.

Japanese:
商品の販売ではなく業としてサービスの提供をする者が,自己の提供するサービスを他人のサービスと区別するために,その業務について使用する標識で,〈役務商標〉といわれる。広告,金融・保険,不動産取引,建築・修理,通信,輸送・貨物の保管,物品の加工,教育・娯楽,その他レストラン・ホテル・医療等の各業務などがある。 第3次産業の発展とともに重要となってきたサービス・マークは,アメリカが1946年に商標法で登録制度によって保護したことに始まり,フィリピン,韓国,フランス,ドイツなどほとんどの国で登録制度で保護している。
