Matters needing attention
Matters needing attention in international registration of trademarks mainly depend on the way you choose international registration and the country you need to choose to register. There are two ways of international registration of general trademarks: Madrid international application and individual registration. Madrid international application first depends on whether the country you choose is a member country, an agreement country or an agreement country of Madrid. The agreed country needs a domestic registration certificate to apply, and the agreed country needs a domestic registration acceptance notice; Advantages are relatively low cost and simple procedures, and several countries can be designated at the same time in one application, which greatly shortens the registration time. The disadvantage is that if it is rejected, the international bureau will not forward the examination or defense documents, and it needs to entrust the agency of the country. You don't need to go through any formalities in China to register one by one, but you can submit your application directly to the official institution of the applicant country. In this case, the cost will be higher, the procedures will be more complicated, and the time for registration review will vary from country to country, which will be relatively long.
