second, the process of Japanese trademark registration

1. Japanese trademark inquiry: The Japanese Patent Office does not provide free inquiry when accepting the application, so it is recommended to conduct an independent inquiry before registration to ensure whether the trademark is similar or duplicated with the previous trademark and ensure the success rate of registration.

2. Submit an application for trademark registration: Bajie collates the information and submits it to the Japan Trademark Patent Office for registration.

3. Official acceptance: electronic acceptance receipt document (acceptance notice), which includes the information of the applicant, application date, application number, etc.

4. Trademark review: to review whether a trademark is registrable according to the law, for example, whether it is significant. If the examiner thinks that the trademark is not suitable for registration, he will issue a notice of rejection, which will take about 3-6 months. The applicant can give a reply within the specified time. Applicants can also apply for an extension of time to reply.

5. Publicity period: After the trademark has passed the examination, the applicant will be informed that the trademark application has been accepted and published in the trademark announcement. Any third party can raise an objection within the two-month announcement period, state the reasons and submit relevant evidence.

6. Approval of registration: It takes 8-12 months from application to issuance of registration certificate.

7. Mailing certificate: After receiving the certificate, we will arrange mailing immediately to ensure that customers can receive their own Japanese trademark certificate quickly.

Of course, these complicated procedures are aimed at us. After submitting the Japanese trademark registration application, Bajie's professional consultant will follow up the whole process later, control each process stage, and feedback the progress and results in time.

iii. period of validity of Japanese trademarks

after successful registration of Japanese trademarks, the period of validity is 1 years. The trademark registrant shall, within 12 months before the expiration, go through the formalities for trademark renewal in accordance with the regulations; If it fails to be handled during this period, a 6-month extension period may be granted.
