Trademark transfer is the act of a trademark registrant giving away, selling or transferring his registered trademark to others for exclusive use. To transfer a registered trademark, the transferor and the transferee must simultaneously apply to the trademark authority for transfer registration or evaluation within 6 months after the transfer. Some countries stipulate that the transferred trademark must be transferred together with the enterprise. my country does not provide for the transfer of trademarks together with enterprises, but it stipulates that the transferee should ensure the quality of the goods using the transferred trademark. Trademarks can also be used as investments to price shares.

Trademark transfer needs to be handled at the Trademark Office. The process includes: application → acceptance → review → announcement → issuance of transfer certificate.

The buyer and seller sign a "Trademark Transfer Contract/Agreement".

Trademark holders handle trademark notarization, which usually takes 3-5 working days to complete and obtain the "Trademark Declaration Notarization Certificate".

Submit the prepared materials and notarial certificate to the Trademark Office, and then pay the transfer fee (usually 500 yuan).

The Trademark Office will issue the acceptance letter in about 1-2 months and start the review.

The Trademark Office will publish an announcement about 2-4 months after accepting the application and issue a "Certificate of Approval of Transfer of Registered Trademark" to both parties.
