The licensee must have legal qualifications, that is, an enterprise legal person, an organization or a natural person with an individual business license.
What is the type of license you authorize? Authorization can be divided into three types:
(1) Exclusive use license means that the trademark registrant licenses the registered trademark to only one licensee in the agreed period, region and manner, and the trademark registrant may not use the registered trademark according to the agreement. Simply put, after the exclusive use license is given to others, it can only be used by the licensee, but you can't use it yourself.
(2) exclusive use license means that the trademark registrant licenses the registered trademark to only one licensee in the agreed period, region and manner. The trademark registrant may use the registered trademark according to the agreement, but may not license others to use the registered trademark. It can only be used by licensor and licensee.
(3) General use license means that a trademark registrant authorizes others to use his registered trademark within an agreed period, region and manner, and can use the registered trademark by himself and authorize others to use it. After you license a licensee, you can use it yourself or license it to others again
, which is decided by the licensor and the licensee through consultation, and the license type should be clearly stated in the license contract
Secondly, it should be noted that Article 43 of the Trademark Law stipulates that
a trademark registrant can license others to use its registered trademark by signing a trademark license contract. The licensor shall supervise the quality of the goods in which the licensee uses its registered trademark. The licensee shall guarantee the quality of the goods using the registered trademark.
anyone who uses another person's registered trademark with permission must indicate the name of the licensee and the place of origin of the goods on which the registered trademark is used. Where another person is licensed to use his registered trademark, the licensor shall report his trademark license to the Trademark Office for the record and the Trademark Office shall make an announcement. A trademark license may not be used against a bona fide third party without filing.
if the licensee uses your trademark on unqualified products or services, it will have a bad influence on your corporate reputation and popularity.
