The name of salt is generally called table salt. This is a kind of seasoning. It is divided into many different types because of its different sources. Because it is true that salt is an essential seasoning when cooking, but the amount used should not be too much, and the degree of control must be controlled. So which category of salt trademark should be chosen more appropriately?

As for the selection of trademark categories, the clear way is to obtain the results through the query in the Bajie Intellectual Property Trademark Classification Encyclopedia. Because the Trademark Classification Encyclopedia lists all 45 categories and organizes them in order, it is relatively convenient to choose. The category of the salt trademark is in the 30th category "3014-salt", and it is indeed related to the food category.

Can Hunan trademarks still be used in the market without going to the Trademark Office for registration and approval? In fact, trademark registration is not compulsory. Except for certain categories of operations such as tobacco products, which must have registered trademarks approved, most trademark categories can be used without approval, but the risks faced in the market will be different.

First of all, unapproved trademarks will not be protected by law. That is to say, in fact, the rights that enterprises can obtain after trademark approval are not available to unregistered trademarks, and intangible assets cannot be transformed. As a tangible asset, a series of initiatives such as trademark transfer, trademark authorization, and pledge are not owned by the enterprise and are only used as marks.

Of course, because there is no so-called trademark right, when a trademark is infringed, companies cannot use legal means to protect the trademark and themselves. Moreover, if the trademark is not currently registered, anyone can register it. If the trademark is really registered by others, the company may be sued for infringement in the future use.

This means that companies can indeed use unregistered trademarks in the market, but in terms of safety, only after trademark registration has been approved can such safety be guaranteed. After all, with legal protection, more infringements will be resolved fairly through prosecution, and companies will not suffer from intellectual property-related troubles caused by others when using trademarks.
