In these days, you must be careful in everything you do. When handling business, you must not only look at the cost-effectiveness, but also the scale and strength of the business company, lest the trademark agency runs away halfway through the trademark registration... No!

No, the incident of Jinan Yuanbo Intellectual Property Agency Co., Ltd. running away a few days ago is still fresh in my mind. Click to view.

Mr. Guo, who applied for trademark registration at the company, was also in tears. The agency ran away, but what should we do with the registered trademark!

When this happens , first of all, you can check which stage your trademark is at on the official website of the Trademark Office: 1. The trademark is under application; 2. The application has been successful.

1. The trademark is still under application

If your trademark is still in the application process, it may be rejected or opposed by others.

Trademark rejection review and trademark objection defense are time-sensitive. In such cases, the Trademark Office will send relevant materials to the agency. If the agency goes bankrupt, it will not be able to receive the materials. As a result, the trademark cannot be processed in a timely manner and the trademark is ultimately invalid.

Therefore, if the trademark agency has left and your trademark is still being applied for, you must promptly apply for a change of trademark agent. After successful registration, the new agency will collect it and mail it for you. Go to your location.

2. The application has been successful

If your trademark application has been successful, but you have not received the trademark registration certificate, in this case you need to confirm whether the trademark registration certificate has indeed been issued. Send it to the original agency, or return the letter to the Trademark Office. If it is in the bureau, one way, you can go to the Trademark Office to collect it yourself with a valid certificate; the other way, you can find a new trademark agency to help you collect it on your behalf.

Warm reminder: To receive a trademark certificate, you must submit a copy of the applicant's business license and its copy, or a copy of the business license with the applicant's official seal, and provide the trademark registration number and announcement period (can be found in the trademark (available on the bureau’s official website), the original ID card of the recipient and its copy.

If you still cannot find it in the end, you can only apply for a new certificate.

After receiving the certificate, can we not change the agency?

In fact, this is not the case, because after the trademark application is successful, the rights will also be unstable, such as revocation. Three years of non-use or invalidation require continuous monitoring by the agency to ensure the stability of trademark rights, so it is very necessary to change the agency.

Finally, I would like to suggest that if the agency runs away, you must change to a regular agency in time. Trademark agency
