The Implementation Regulations of China's Trademark Law stipulate that when using a registered trademark, a "registered trademark" or registered mark may be indicated on goods, product packaging, instructions or other attachments. Registration marks include (note plus ○) and (?). The registration mark should be marked on the upper right corner or lower right corner of the trademark (where R is the abbreviation of REGISTER).

Some trademarks are marked with TM in the upper right corner. TM is the abbreviation of TRADEMARK. American trademarks are usually marked with TM, which does not necessarily refer to a registered trademark.
