In the process of purchasing a trademark, we need to know clearly when the trademark expires. Generally, a trademark is valid for 10 years. We need to check whether the trademark has expired. If the trademark registration is about to expire, then we must urge the trademark registration to complete the renewal procedures.
3. What are the goods or services designated by the trademark?
When we purchase a trademark, do our products comply with the service scope of the trademark? The service items of a trademark determine the business scope of our products in the future, so you must clearly check whether the trademark or service items specified by the trademark are consistent to ensure that they are consistent with your own business.
