Generally, a company cannot renew its trademark if it has been cancelled. Because the applicant has been eliminated, and the extension is also an administrative license, it can only be handled by the applicant and cannot be transferred. However, if the ownership of the goods attached to the trademark has an heir or assignee, it can be re-registered.

Legal basis

Article 40

If a registered trademark expires and needs to be continued to be used, the trademark registrant shall go through the renewal procedures in accordance with the regulations within twelve months before the expiration; here If the application cannot be processed within the period, a six-month extension period can be given. Each renewal of registration is valid for ten years, starting from the day after the expiration of the previous term of validity of the trademark. If renewal procedures are not completed upon expiration, the registered trademark will be cancelled.
