Trademark exists in a company as a special legal term. Brands and some brands are called trademarks after they are registered by relevant government departments in accordance with the law. Trademarks are protected by law and enjoy exclusive rights upon registration. Famous trademarks in the international market are registered in many countries. The country has two types of registered trademarks and unregistered trademarks. Registered trademarks are protected by law after being registered by relevant government departments. Unregistered trademarks are not protected by trademark law. Therefore, among the many trademarks owned by an enterprise, registered trademarks should account for the vast majority, while unregistered trademarks should exist in a minority. In addition to trademark registration, trademark transfer is also more popular among major enterprises. Secondly, what are the forms of trademark transfer?
Trademark registration can be divided into personal trademark registration and corporate trademark registration, so if you want to transfer a trademark, you need to make changes between these two types of trademarks. There are three forms of trademark transfer: corporate trademark transfer to individuals, company trademark transfer to companies, and personal trademark transfer to individuals.
When transferring a company to a company, the transferor needs to prepare a trademark registration certificate, business license and seal, as well as a bilateral trademark transfer agreement and an entrusted transfer agency agreement. The materials that the trademark transferee needs to prepare are a copy of the company's business license, stamped with the official seal, and a trademark transfer agreement and a trademark transfer agency agreement between both parties.
When an individual transfers to another person, the transferor needs to prepare a personal ID card and sign it; an agreement between the two parties and an agreement on entrusting a trademark agency; and a trademark registration certificate. The transferee needs to prepare a copy of the individual industrial and commercial household's business license, stamp it with the official seal, and both parties sign a trademark transfer agreement and a trademark agency agreement.
When a company is transferred to an individual, the transferor needs to prepare the trademark registration certificate, company business license and official seal, as well as the transaction agreement between the two parties to the trademark transfer and the trademark transfer entrustment agreement. The documents that the transferee needs to prepare include the trademark transfer agreement between the two parties, the trademark transfer agent entrustment agreement, a copy and signature of the personal ID card and the business license of the individual industrial and commercial household.
In addition to the different forms of trademark transfer mentioned above, in addition to personal or business information and trademark registration certificates, trademark transfer also requires trademark transfer information. However, some trademark offices do not stipulate this, but a trademark certificate must be provided when a trademark is transferred.
For various forms of trademark transfer, the trademark transfer time is 3 to 4 months after the "Trademark Transfer Acceptance Notice" issued by the Trademark, Industrial and Commercial Trademark Office of the agency, and will be issued within 7 to 8 months "Trademark Transfer Approval Letter" to complete the trademark transfer procedures.
