What is the registration procedure for New Zealand trademarks?

Trademark search: to search the trademark that needs to be registered in New Zealand, so as to ensure that the trademark will not be similar to or the same as the registered trademark or the trademark that was previously applied for in New Zealand.

submission of application: to register a new Zealand trademark, the applicant or his entrusted agent must submit the application documents to the new Zealand intellectual property office and go through the relevant registration application procedures.

Trademark review: When the New Zealand Intellectual Property Office receives a trademark application request, it will conduct formal review and substantive review to determine whether the application documents submitted are complete and whether the applied trademark has a registration basis.

review comments: in the process of review, if there are reasons for refusing the registration of the trademark, then the New Zealand Intellectual Property Office will send an opinion to the applicant, asking him to make an amendment within the specified time, so that it can be done.

announcement: trademarks that can be registered after examination will be announced in official New Zealand journals.
