There are several forms of trademark transfer:

In business management, trademark transfer occurs from time to time, but when does a trademark transfer occur? There are several forms of trademark transfer. Well, ordinary brothers may not have much energy to understand. Here, we use popular language to discuss this professional question.

Currently, there are three ways to transfer trademarks in my country, namely contractual transfer, inheritance transfer, and transfer due to administrative orders. Among these three methods, the most common one we see is contract transfer, which is usually referred to as trademark transfer. For example, if you want a trademark, then through a contract and both parties agree, this transfer is a contract transfer. , the contract transfer must be registered with the Trademark Office before it can take effect. Otherwise, the transfer in private will have no legal effect, and sometimes the trademark registration certificate will be revoked.

As for continued transfer, this meaning can be seen literally. For example, a boss dies due to an accident. At this time, there is no trademark transfer contract, and he still has many registered trademarks in his hands. So what to do? It will naturally belong to the heir. This kind of transfer is rare and usually involves big brands. I have been doing this for many years and it is a family business.

As for transfers due to administrative orders, this situation usually occurs in state-owned enterprises. For example, if some state-owned enterprises are undergoing reorganization or merger, the ownership of the trademark will sometimes change. This mostly relies on administrative orders. After all, ordinary private companies do not have this problem.

The trademark transfer process generally takes about 8-10 months.
