    What do you mean by "courtesy of a company"

    If you register xyz.ro & xyz.com has it's name TMed, than there could be TM issues.

    Example, you register Google.ro, there is TM issues

    i found on an italian website that xyz is a registered trademark

    does the trademarking apply globally or only for the country where the trademarking was made?
