The holder of a geographical indication certification trademark changes or the trademark authorizes an enterprise group to use only the
"Taihe Wuji" trademark, which is also a geographical indication trademark. When applying for registration, it was temporarily decided that Taihe Wuji Association would be the applicant. In order to better develop the characteristic industry of Wuji and realize the strategy of enriching the people, the county government plans to change the trademark holder to Taihe Wuji Industrial Office in Taihe County. It is also planned to introduce foreign leading processing enterprises to Taihe to form "Taihe Black-bone Chicken Industry Alliance", which will absorb the existing black-bone chicken breeding, processing and sales enterprises to build Taihe Black-bone Chicken Industry. However, the condition is that the exclusive right to use the trademark and geographical indications of "Taihe Wuji" must be authorized for the exclusive use of the industrial alliance, so as to facilitate the alliance to invest in building a brand. From the trademark law management related laws, we can't find the corresponding provisions. Please give your advice, thank you! I asked last year, but I didn't get a reply.
according to your account, we believe that changing the registrant of "Taihe Wuji" geographical indication certification trademark from Taihe Wuji Association to Taihe Wuji Industrial Office actually belongs to the transfer of geographical indication certification trademark. In this case, five documents need to be provided: 1. An application for trademark transfer (if a trademark agency is entrusted, a power of attorney for trademark agency shall also be attached); 2. A copy of the applicant's qualification certificate; 3. Documents that the people's government or the competent department of industry in the area marked by geographical indications authorize the applicant to apply for registration and supervise and manage the geographical indications; 4. Rules for the administration of the use of geographical indication certification trademarks; 5. Proof that the applicant for geographical indications has the ability to supervise and detect the geographical indications. With regard to the issue of authorizing enterprises to use geographical indications to certify trademarks, according to the provisions of Article 18 of the Measures for the Registration and Administration of Collective Trademarks and Certification Trademarks, anyone who meets the requirements stipulated in the management rules for the use of certification trademarks may use the certification trademarks after fulfilling the procedures stipulated in the management rules for the use of certification trademarks, and the registrant shall not refuse to go through the formalities.
