A Trademark Symbol ™ is used to denote that the preceding mark is a trademark, particularly an unregistered trademark.
The Trademark Symbol ™ complements the registered trademark symbol ®, which is reserved for trademarks that are registered with an appropriate government agency.
Companies may use the trademark symbol on their applications while the trademark is still pending. Once a word, phrase, or logo has been registered, then the appropriate symbol to use is the R symbol, denoted by ®.

What does the Trademark Symbol Mean?
The Trademark Symbol ™ is used to indicate that the preceding mark is a trademark, specifically an unregistered trademark. If the trademark is still pending approval, companies might use the ™ Trademark Symbol. The correct symbol to use once a word, phrase, or logo is 100% registered is the R symbol, denoted by ®.
You can use the trademark symbol if you have registered your work. Trademarks are territorial, so you can’t use the symbol in the U.S. if you’re a registered trademark in China. Trademark lawyers can help you register trademark symbols and protect other intellectual property like patents and copyrights. Failure to use or protect your trademarks may result in permanent loss of federal protection.
