About Registered Trademark
The registered trademark symbol (®) indicates that a trademark has been officially registered with a government trademark office. It is used after brand names, product names, and logos that have achieved registered status.
In HTML, you can insert this symbol using ®, ®, or ®. The named entity ® is widely supported and is the most readable option. This symbol is distinct from the unregistered trademark symbol (™), which is used for trademarks that have not been formally registered.
The registered trademark symbol is part of the Latin-1 Supplement Unicode block and has been supported in HTML since the earliest specifications. It renders correctly across all modern browsers, operating systems, and email clients. When used in running text, it typically appears as a superscript character, though its exact rendering can vary slightly between fonts.
In CSS, use "\00AE" with the content property to insert this symbol via pseudo-elements. In legal and corporate websites, this symbol is often required by brand guidelines to appear after every mention of a registered trademark name.
