The most expensive mistake in Class 29
The boundary between class 29 and class 30 is the one that generates the most office actions in food. The practical rule: class 29 groups what is of animal origin together with preserved or processed plant products; class 30 groups plant-based pantry staples, such as flours, coffee, sauces and bakery. A single catalogue often falls into both, and describing it badly is what stalls the file.

Classes commonly filed alongside Class 29

Not sure which class you need?
