Assignments and licences recorded on the Register—clean chain of title for M&A and enforcement.

Typical timeline
Weeks for straightforward recordals; longer if queries arise
Effect
Public notice of ownership / permitted use strengthens enforcement
Process
Deed → stamp → TM-P → acknowledgement → register update
FAQs
Partial assignment of classes?
Possible with careful deed splits; Registry may examine closely.
