Which trademarks cannot be transferred?

The editor is here to talk to you about trademark transfer. It is an act in which the trademark registrant transfers the exclusive right of the trademark to another party in accordance with legal procedures during the validity period of the registered trademark. However, it is also Not all trademarks can be transferred. Not all trademarks can be transferred. Applicants must check whether the trademark can be transferred before applying. If you don’t know how to check, you can also entrust an agency to handle it. The agency will help you in advance. You check. The following editor will introduce to you the following trademarks that cannot be transferred:

① For trademarks that have expired and have not submitted an application for renewal or extension, or that have been canceled by the Trademark Office, others have applied to the Trademark Office for the continuation of the registered trademark. Stopping use for three years; changing the words, graphics and combinations of registered trademarks without authorization, changing the name and address of the registrant without approval from relevant departments, or failing to go through the change procedures for other matters. None are transferable.

② A trademark with one registration number used for two or more categories cannot be transferred separately. When the trademark registration specifies that the trademark can be used for two or more goods, if they are non-similar goods, Trademarks can be transferred individually for each type of goods, but if they belong to similar goods they should be transferred in full. Allowing such trademarks to be divided and transferred would violate the provisions of the Trademark Law, causing two trademark registrants to use the same trademark on similar goods at the same time, resulting in confusion of goods from different manufacturers.

③If a trademark has multiple owners, then one person cannot transfer it without the consent of other owners. Registered trademarks belong to two or more people. Sometimes, if each owner wants to transfer his or her share of the rights and interests, he or she must obtain the consent of the other owners.

④The trademark is your own but has been licensed to others for use and may not be transferred at will. If the trademark registrant has licensed others to use the trademark, if the exclusive right is transferred to a third party during the license period, the consent of the licensee must be obtained; and the transfer registration can only be processed after the original license contract is terminated.

⑤ If the trademark transferee, while using the trademark, manufactures shoddy goods, passes them off as good quality, and deceives consumers, his transfer registration may be revoked
