trademark registration procedures
The author Beijing Yaxin can communicate with us if he has any problems in trademark registration.
Now more and more enterprises and people have the consciousness of building their own brands and want to give their brands a certain influence in their own regions, even in the whole country or around the world. The first step is to apply for trademark registration. Many people know about trademark registration, but they don't know where to register and the procedures for trademark registration. Many people think that registering with the local industrial and commercial bureau requires the approval of the industrial and commercial bureau, just like registering a company.
It is emphasized that trademark registration is accepted and examined by the State Trademark Office, and the registration certificate will be issued uniformly after examination, which has nothing to do with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau!
What are the ways for trademark registration?
1. You can go to the Trademark Office in China National Intellectual Property Administration to submit the trademark registration documents yourself.
2. Entrust a trademark agency to handle the trademark registration procedures of Yaxin
:
After receiving the documents, the Trademark Office will start a formal examination for about 15 working days, and if it passes the examination, it will issue an acceptance notice. Next, the substantive examination of trademark words and patterns will be carried out, and it will take about 5 months. After passing the examination, it will enter the announcement period, and the announcement period will be 3 months. If there is no objection, the registration certificate will be issued, and those who fail to pass the examination will be rejected.
after receiving the notice of rejection, the applicant can also apply for rejection and reexamination. How to reexamine and whether the reexamination can be successful depends on the professional defense provided by the trademark agent to strive for more benefits for the applicant.
