Not uncommonly confusion arises about the correct usage of Yamaha’s various logos. As a result, the logos of Yamaha Corporation and Yamaha Motor, or elements thereof, may be interchanged by mistake. To prevent confusion, please find below a detailed overview of the differences between the two logos.

‘YAMAHA’ is printed in an asymmetric font and comes in violet.

‘YAMAHA’ is printed in a symmetrical font and uses red as it’s corporate colour.

The tips of the three tuning forks are contained in the inner circle.

The three tuning forks are bigger and the tips are in line with the outer circle.

The ‘’M’’ has a shorter middle column than the outer legs.

The middle column of the ‘’M’’ is as long as the outer legs.

Yamaha logoThe Yamaha logo is a combination of the tuning fork mark and the Yamaha word logo. It symbolizes the Yamaha brand. The tuning fork mark and the Yamaha word logo comprise one logo. Because their combination forms Yamaha’s corporate trademark, the tuning fork mark and the Yamaha word logo must always be used together (apparel items are excluded from this rule). It is not allowed to combine the Yamaha logo with other elements unless permission is granted by the Yamaha head office.

Full colour landscape logoThe landscape full colour Yamaha logo is the logo of choice under any circumstances.

Be sure to always maintain sufficient space around the Yamaha logo; at least half the tuning fork mark’s diameter. This will increase the logos legibility and visibility.

The tuning fork mark’s diameter should be at least 7 mm. Accordingly, the letters of the Yamaha word logo must be at least 6 mm in height. The total width of the corporate trademark - the tuning fork mark and the Yamaha word logo combined - should be at least 30 mm.

PortraitAs a general rule, the full colour landscape Yamaha logo should always be used. However, only where space limitations apply or in case the landscape logos visibility would significantly harm the logo’s visual impact, as an exception to the rule the portrait logo may be used. The portrait logo serves as backup and should only be used where layout demands a more compact and centralized design.

Design regulations As a general rule, you should always use the 3-D landscape Yamaha logo. Yet, where cantly

the visual impact of the logo, only then can you use the portrait logo. The portrait logo is therefore the second option, and should only be used when the layout demands a more compact and centralised design. The relationship between the Tuning Fork and the word Yamaha must always remain as shown here. Never use the Tuning Fork as a

nished products e.g. units (motorcycles, waverunners....).

The slogan should be aligned horizontally, on a white background. The proportions, shape and pairing order of the designated Yamaha brand slogan logo may not be altered.

Full colour logoThe landscape full colour Yamaha brand slogan logo is the logo of choice under any circumstances.

The tuning fork mark’s diameter should be at least 7 mm. Accordingly, the letters of the Yamaha word logo must be at least 6 mm in height. The total width of the corporate trademark - the tuning fork mark and the Yamaha word logo combined - should be at least 30 mm.

Be sure to always maintain sufficient white space around the Yamaha brand slogan logo; at least half the tuning fork mark’s diameter. This will increase the logos legibility and visibility.
