What does preliminary trademark approval mean? Article 30 of the Trademark Law stipulates that within three months from the date of announcement, anyone may file an objection to a trademark that has been initially approved. If there is no objection at the expiration of the announcement period, the registration will be approved, a trademark registration certificate will be issued, and the announcement will be made. If no one raises an objection within the 3-month objection period, you will be able to get the registration certificate after 3 months. If the trademark preliminary approval announcement comes out, it means that the trademark has been approved by the Trademark Office, that is, the registration will be successful. During the announcement period, anyone can raise objections. Whoever wants to file an objection can only wait until the other party files an objection, and the Trademark Office will give you a notice of objection.
