Since trademark application is a complicated and long process, in order to avoid futility and waste of money during the application process, registration search is an essential link.

Two results can usually be obtained from a search. One is to know whether the applied trademark is duplicated or similar to others; the other is to know whether our trademark complies with the government’s standards for trademark laws.

The law does not stipulate that you must go through the registration search process, but we strongly recommend that you do a complete search before applying for registration.
