Pants are also a type of clothing. The official explanation is that they generally refer to clothing worn below the waist. They are generally made of a trouser waist, a crotch, and two trouser legs. According to the material, shape and There are many classifications depending on the audience. So how to choose the category of pants trademark?
By searching in the Bajie Intellectual Property Trademark Encyclopedia, we can know that the category of the pants trademark is Class 25-2501-Clothing-Pants 250064. There should be no objection to this. After all, almost all clothing and accessories worn by people come from category 25, which is also a popular category for registration applications.
If Wuhu trademark registration is always failed to be approved, what is the reason? In fact, the reason why trademark registration has been failed to be reviewed is that in addition to the subjective judgment of consciousness during the review process, there are other reasons for the existence of the trademark itself, which can also cause the trademark to be failed to be reviewed.
① It may be that the trademark being registered is the same as or similar to someone else’s registered trademark. This tells us that we must conduct a trademark inquiry before applying to understand whether the trademark we prepare is already registered with others. The trademark or the trademark being registered is the same or similar. If a similar trademark is found, it should be adjusted or modified in time. If necessary, it can be abandoned directly.
Although trademark search does not have legal effect, it can reduce blindness and reduce the risk of trademark registration. However, trademark search cannot guarantee that there will be no similar trademarks. After all, there is still a trademark blind period of four to six months. After submitting the application, you can conduct another trademark search after a period of time.
② Not all signs can be registered as trademarks. The main function of a trademark is to distinguish the source of goods or services between different operators, so the trademark must be distinctive. If there is no distinctiveness, then the trademark The application cannot be approved.
The general lack of distinctiveness includes: the common name of the product, directly indicating the quality, main functions and uses of the product, etc. Therefore, it is best for the trademark prepared by the applicant to be an original trademark to ensure the distinctiveness of the trademark. This will neither constitute similarity nor lack of distinctiveness, and can also register copyright, which is of great benefit to trademark registration.
③Some applicants’ trademarks are a combination of multiple elements such as graphics, text, and numbers. Such combination applications can easily lead to failure in trademark registration. This is because the examiner will examine the elements separately when reviewing a trademark. If there is even one similarity, the entire trademark will be rejected.
So the applicant still needs to apply for the combined trademark separately, so that even if there are similar elements, it will not affect the application for other elements. Moreover, after the trademark registration is successful, the trademarks applied for separately can be combined and used together, which is convenient and flexible, and the elements can be adjusted according to the needs of the enterprise. Choosing to register separately can not only improve the success rate of trademark registration, but also obtain maximum protection.
It is true that trademark registration is risky, so in order to reduce the risk, the above points can be done, and the application for registered trademark can almost be approved, but this is also possible, and there is no such thing as trademark registration. There are no certainties.
