The number of trademark transfer companies in Beijing is increasing year by year. Although the more classic way to obtain a trademark is trademark registration, the number of trademark registrations has been too many in recent years, and the number of examiners at the Trademark Office has also increased because of this. The approval threshold makes trademark approval increasingly difficult, so companies turn to trademark transfers.
At the beginning of a trademark transfer, you need to understand the whole thing and know which signatures need to be signed in a timely manner, and the trademark transfer contract is obviously one of them. A trademark transfer contract means that the owner of the trademark transfers the trademark to the transferee in accordance with the law. Once the application is approved, the trademark ownership will belong to the transferee. In order to achieve such a situation, a trademark transfer contract is necessary.
In addition to the trademark transfer contract, when transferring a trademark, the transferor should sort out the similar trademarks of the transferred trademark in a planned manner and inform the transferee and negotiate with the transferee. Generally, similar trademarks should be accompanied by The main trademark is transferred together. If an agreement has been reached and no transfer is required, restrictions should be placed on it.
If there is any discrepancy with legal provisions in the transfer application, the Trademark Office will send a written notice to the applicant by mail according to the address filled in on the application form and make corrections within a time limit. If there is an agent, , it will be sent to the agent by mail. Therefore, filling in the relevant addresses must be accurate enough to receive relevant documents.
In fact, there is another situation in the transfer process, that is, the transferee of the trademark transferred by the transferor is not one. At this time, if the transfer application has been approved, the relevant notice or transfer certificate from the Trademark Office will only be issued to All authorized representatives should apply for reissue if other authorized persons need proof. This situation also needs to be understood.
In addition, it should be noted that both parties applying for trademark transfer need to have a business license. If the transferee is an individual, he needs to have an individual business license, otherwise the transfer cannot be completed. And trademark transfer can only be implemented with the consent of both parties. In the spirit of openness and transparency, the transferor should be the trademark registrant or a person entrusted by the registrant.
There are actually many things to pay attention to when transferring trademarks. The above are some of the more common ones, and they are also things that companies should always pay attention to. If the company does not pay attention to these in the early stage, there will be more difficulties in the later transfer, so it should pay attention to these in a timely manner.
