There are many differences between the trademark registration systems of China and the United States. In previous articles, we have talked about the US trademark use statement, the basis of US trademark application, etc. Today we will talk about the US trademark registration and Another difference in Chinese trademark registration is the American trademark oath. As we all know, there is no oath in Chinese trademark registration. Many people may not even know what an American trademark oath is. The system of US trademark use oath is very sound, and the US trademark oath is involved in various matters such as US trademark registration, US trademark use, and US trademark renewal. Let’s take a look at it in detail below. 1. U.S. trademark registration requires an oath of intention to use. U.S. trademark registration has two basis: intention to use and already used. When applying for U.S. trademark registration with intention to use, an oath is required within 6 months after the official review is passed. Wait for the oath to be passed. The trademark certificate can only be obtained after 6 months. If you have not sworn for more than 6 months, you can apply for a paid extension. 2. An oath is required in the 5th to 6th year of U.S. trademark registration. According to the provisions of Article 8 of the U.S. Trademark Law, the registrant must take an oath of use in the 5th to 6th year after registration, that is, throughout the 5th or 6th year, stating that The trademark continues to be used in commerce on designated goods/services, or the registrant declares that the trademark is not used for other special reasons, and such non-use does not mean abandonment of the trademark. Otherwise, upon the expiration of the sixth year from the date of publication of the registration, the USPTO will revoke the trademark registration. 3. Article 15 of the U.S. Trademark Law requires an oath to be "indisputable". According to Article 15 of the U.S. Trademark Law, if a trademark registrant has used its registered trademark in the United States for five consecutive years from the date of trademark registration, the registrant can apply Once the indisputable rights are obtained and the oath is successful, any third party can no longer request a U.S. appeals trial to revoke the trademark registration on the grounds that the trademark lacks distinctiveness. 4. An oath is required for U.S. trademark renewal. The validity period of a U.S. registered trademark is 10 years, calculated from the date of registration. Within six months before the expiration date, the trademark owner can submit a renewal application to the USPTO and still needs to submit a statement of use, stating that the trademark will continue to be used in commerce for designated goods/services, or stating that The registrant's failure to use the trademark is based on other special reasons, and such non-use does not imply abandonment of the trademark. Otherwise, the USPTO will revoke the trademark registration. It can be seen that no matter whether you are registering a US trademark or after successfully registering a US trademark, you cannot relax. You must pay close attention to the situation of the trademark to avoid the trademark being revoked due to negligence.
