what should I pay attention to in trademark registration?
1. When examining a trademark, if the trademark is registered in Chinese, English and graphics as a whole, it must pass the examination of the trademark at the same time before the trademark can be examined and approved. Once any one of the elements is similar to other previously applied trademarks, the whole trademark will be rejected. The three elements can be registered separately, even if one element is rejected and the other two elements can be registered successfully; There are many components of trademarks, which will take longer to examine. Separate registration and single components will save the time of trademark examination.
2. register the trademark quickly, leaving no breathing space for competitors. If you don't register in time, all your ideas will belong to others.
3. Use trademarks, and don't change too much by yourself. The trademark logo used should be consistent with the registered trademark logo when applying for approval at that time. In the process of use, the enterprise can only enlarge and reduce it in proportion, and it is not allowed to change the text of the trademark by itself. It is not allowed to change the original trademark traditional Chinese characters into simplified Chinese characters. If the changed appearance happens to be similar to the registered trademark of others, it may also constitute trademark infringement.
4. If the company changes its name, it must change its trademark in advance. If the ownership of a trademark changes, it should go through the corresponding transfer formalities at the Trademark Office in time. Find similar trademarks and raise objections as soon as possible. In order to prevent the salience of his trademark from being diluted, the applicant for trademark registration cannot rely solely on the examiner of the Trademark Office. If your competitor or your former partner applies for a trademark similar to yours, you should file an objection application in time. Otherwise, his application is successful, and yours will be difficult to pass.
