Can a trademark be bought and sold without registration?
Now many manufacturers buy a machine and rent a venue to make their own products. These products are not marked with trademarks. So can these products be bought and sold without registering their trademarks? If this question bothers you, here's an answer. First of all, trademarks are not compulsory to register, but if they are not registered, once they are registered, they can no longer produce such goods. So what's the difference between an unregistered trademark and a registered trademark? What is the specific difference? From the following three methods to explore: (1) the registered trademark owner can exclude others from registering the same or similar trademarks on the same or similar goods; Users of unregistered trademarks have no right to exclude others from registering the same or similar trademarks on the same or similar goods. If they do not apply for registration, they may be registered first by others and be prohibited from continuing to use the trademarks. (2) The owner of a registered trademark enjoys the exclusive right to use a trademark. When a registered trademark is used as a fake by others, which constitutes trademark infringement, the trademark owner may request the illegal user to bear legal responsibility. The unregistered trademark user's use of the unregistered trademark is a fact, not a right, and it has no right to prohibit others from using it. The first user has no right to use the trademark law against a third person to request litigation protection. (3) The use of the registered trademark on the approved goods is the right of the trademark owner, and the exercise of these rights by the trademark owner does not involve the exclusive right of others to use the trademark. However, once an unregistered trademark user is the same as or similar to another person's registered trademark, it constitutes a trademark and should bear corresponding legal responsibilities. Trademarks have the functions of promoting goods, distinguishing the sources of products or services, marking the quality of goods, guiding the purchase of goods, etc. To some extent, the trademarks loved by the masses have great intangible value. Therefore, trademarks should still be registered in order to be protected by law.
