A.Hi,
Registering a trademark gives you legal protection even though it is not mandatory to register the trademark. You can sue those who use your trademark for any purpose and has the right to get compensation in case of any loss.

A.Hi,
Trademark registration is not mandatory but optional. If you register your trademark, you will get legal protection. If someone uses your trademark you can sue them as that is something only you can use for your products or services.

A.Registering trademark is not legally mandatory. It is purely optional.

If you register your brand/online store name as trademark, you can initiate legal action against anyone who uses a name similar/identical to yours.

Without trademark registration you cannot file a case against anyone who uses a similar/identical name.
