What is the procedure for trademark registration?
1. Application: Trademark registration is filed by the applicant or his agent with the Trademark Office under the State Administration for Industry and Commerce. 2. Preliminary examination and approval: Where a trademark applied for registration conforms to the relevant provisions of the Trademark Law, it shall be preliminarily examined and approved by the Trademark Office and announced. 3. Rejection of application: Where a trademark applied for registration does not conform to the relevant provisions of the Trademark Law or is identical with or similar to a trademark that has been registered or preliminarily approved by others on the same or similar goods, the Trademark Office will reject the application and will not announce it. 4. Objection: Anyone can raise an objection to the trademark that has been preliminarily approved within three months from the date of announcement. 5. Re-examination: (1) If the applicant for trademark registration refuses to accept the rejection of the application by the Trademark Office, or if the party concerned refuses to accept the ruling of the Trademark Office on objection, he may apply to the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board for re-examination within 15 days from the date of receiving the notice. Disputes: (1) Where a registered trademark violates the provisions of Articles 1, 11 and 12 of the Trademark Law, or is registered by deception or other improper means, any unit or individual may request the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board to make a ruling to cancel the registered trademark. (2) If a registered trademark violates the provisions of Articles 13, 15, 16 and 31 of the Trademark Law, the trademark owner or interested party may request the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board to make a ruling to cancel the registered trademark within five years from the date of trademark registration. For malicious registration, the owner of a well-known trademark is not subject to a five-year time limit. (3) Except for the cases mentioned in the preceding two paragraphs, if there is any dispute over a registered trademark, it may apply to the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board for ruling within five years from the date of approval of the registration of the trademark. 7. Administrative litigation: If a party refuses to accept the decision or ruling of the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board, he may bring an administrative lawsuit to the people's court within 3 days from the date of receiving the notice.
