Hello, the world's earliest trademark law is the "Law Concerning Factories, Manufacturers and Workshops" enacted by France in 1803. Trademarks are attached to commodities and are products of the commodity economy. With the development of the commodity economy and the emergence of commodity production and commodity exchange, commodity signs gradually emerged to meet commercial needs. In the West, trademarks first originated in Spain; in my country, craftsmen signed their signatures on the pottery they produced during the Northern Zhou Dynasty (556-580 AD). With the development of history, the scope of use of trademarks has become wider and wider, and their forms have become more and more complete. But what follows is an increasing number of forged and imitated trademarks, because the right of product manufacturers to put marks on their products is not protected by law, and legal users of trademarks cannot prevent others from imitating their products. Therefore, in the more developed capitalist countries in the 19th century, in order to ensure the legitimate rights and interests of commodity producers, prevent others from infringing on counterfeit trademarks, protect the due interests of consumers, and maintain their economic interests and order, laws must be enacted to The special marks made by producers or operators on their own goods shall be legally protected, and the state shall ensure that the trademark is only allowed to be used by the owner of the trademark mark, and that others are not allowed to imitate it. In this regard, initially the legislature took certain measures through the courts to stop the infringement of trademark rights, and later an independent legal system gradually formed. It was under those circumstances that the Law Concerning Factories, Manufacturers and Workshops came into being. The law contains sixteen articles, of which article 16 defines counterfeiting of trademarks as the crime of privately forging documents. However, this law is not a law specifically about trademarks, and it is not a trademark law that is uniformly implemented throughout France. The world's earliest universal nationally unified trademark law also came from France, which was the "Law Concerning Manufacturing Marks and Trademarks Based on the Principle of Use and the Principle of Non-Examination" enacted in France in 1857. The source of this law is Article 1382 of the French Civil Code and the two "Registered Trademark Decree" of 1803 and 1809. 107 years later, in 1964, the law was significantly revised and promulgated as the "Law on Trademarks and Service Marks Based on Registration Principles". It was later revised twice in 1965 and 1975, but the basic content remained unchanged. Following France, Britain, the United States, Germany, and Japan promulgated their respective trademark laws in 1862, 1870, 1874, and 1875 respectively. At present, 127 countries in the world have promulgated trademark laws, which clearly stipulate that trademarks are industrial property rights protected in accordance with the law and do not allow infringement by others. This has been recognized by all countries around the world. Correspondingly, international organizations to protect trademarks have also emerged.

The "Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China" was adopted by the 24th Session of the Standing Committee of the Fifth National People's Congress on August 23, 1982; according to the Standing Committee of the Twelfth National People's Congress on August 30, 2013 The 4th meeting's "Decision on Amending the Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China" was revised for the third time. The "Trademark Law" is divided into general provisions, application for trademark registration, review and approval of trademark registration, renewal, change, transfer and use license of registered trademarks, invalidation of registered trademarks, management of trademark use, protection of exclusive rights to registered trademarks, Article 73 of the Supplementary Provisions shall come into effect on March 1, 1983. The "Trademark Management Regulations" promulgated by the State Council on April 10, 1963 shall be terminated; other provisions related to trademark management that conflict with this law shall be invalid at the same time. Trademarks registered before the implementation of this law will continue to be valid.
