Are there any rights established by having a registered trademark?

Yes. Registration is the only way to secure these rights: 

  • Exclusive right to use the mark
  • Right to oppose later conflicting applications
  • Right to request for an action to cancel later conflicting registrations
  • Right to take a legal action against third parties for infringing the mark
  • Right to take payment from third parties due to infringement
  • Right to authorize or license third parties to use the mark
  • Right to request for seizure of counterfeit goods bearing the mark
  • Right to request for a judicial order restraining third parties to use the mark
