Hello, I am happy to answer your question.

After the trademark is registered, the trademark holder can enjoy the trademark rights according to law.

Trademark rights, also known as registered trademark exclusive rights, refer to the rights enjoyed by trademark holders over their trademarks registered in accordance with the law at the Trademark Registry. In other words, once a trademark is registered, its holder has exclusive rights to the trademark, and others are not allowed to use or tamper with it. At the same time, trademark holders cannot change the registered trademark at will. If they want to change the trademark, they must comply with the relevant provisions of the law.

Trademark rights include the exclusive right to use a trademark, the right to license a trademark, the right to prohibit a trademark, the right to transfer a trademark, etc.

1. Exclusive right to use trademarks
