Trademark registration protection is territorial, and it will be protected by law in the country where it is registered. Foreigners or foreign enterprises refer to foreigners or foreign enterprises who do not have a regular residence or business office in China. Trademarks registered abroad can be used domestically without the need to produce any documents. But it is not protected by law in the country. When foreign brands enter the domestic market, they are also required to register their trademarks and obtain the exclusive rights to trademarks, otherwise they will not receive legal protection.

Signed agreements or international treaties to which China is a party must be handled, or handled in accordance with the principle of reciprocity.
