According to Chinese laws, the protection period of trademark rights is ten years. Where it is necessary to continue to use the trademark right after the expiration, it shall apply for renewal of registration within six months before the expiration, and each renewal of registration shall be valid for ten years. In this sense, if something can be renewed in time, the trademark can be used forever. This is different from copyright and patent, which have a fixed term and cannot be renewed. According to the law, Article 39 of the Trademark Law is valid for ten years, counting from the date of approval of registration. Article 40 Where a registered trademark needs to be used continuously after its expiration, the trademark registrant shall go through the renewal procedures in accordance with the regulations within 12 months before the expiration. If it has not been handled during this period, it can be extended for six months. The validity period of each renewal registration is ten years, counting from the day after the last expiration of the trademark. If the renewal formalities are not completed at the expiration of the period, the registered trademark shall be cancelled. The Trademark Office shall announce the renewed registered trademark.
