A registered trade union may be recognised but a recognised trade union has to be registered. Registration is mandatory but recognition is essential when there is multiplicity of trade unions existing in an organisation.
A registered trade union is one that has fulfilled the legal requirements to operate within a specific jurisdiction, whereas a recognized trade union is one that an employer agrees to engage with for collective bargaining purposes. For example, in the UK, the Trade Union Congress (TUC) is a registered trade union, while a specific union representing employees at a company like Ford may be recognized by Ford for bargaining on behalf of its workers.
