Hello, can the trademark be inherited? The father passed on the inheritance to his son.
According to Article 4 of the Trademark Law, the subject of trademark registration is a natural person. Article 47 of the Regulations for the Implementation of the Trademark Law stipulates that if the registrant of a trademark dies or terminates, and 1 year has elapsed since the date of death or termination, and the registered trademark has not been transferred, anyone may apply to the Trademark Office for cancellation of the registered trademark. To apply for cancellation, evidence of the death or termination of the trademark registrant shall be submitted. [1] Article 26 of the Regulations for the Implementation of the Trademark Law stipulates that if the exclusive right to use a registered trademark is transferred for reasons other than transfer, the party accepting the transferred exclusive right to use a registered trademark shall go through the transfer formalities at the Trademark Office with relevant supporting documents or legal documents. Trademark registrants, as intangible property, can be inherited by their legal heirs in the order of inheritance after death.
