When it is rejected, what other measures can be taken besides rejecting the review?

(1) If a combination trademark (graphics and text) is rejected because the text or graphic part is similar to an earlier trademark, the similar part can be removed and a separate application for registered trademark is made.

(2) If the cited trademark that caused the trademark application to be rejected has not been used for three consecutive years, an application for cancellation of the cited trademark that has not been used for three consecutive years can be submitted to the Trademark Office to remove obstacles to registration and thereby The applied trademark is finally registered.

(3) If the cited trademark that causes the applied trademark to be rejected is preemptively registered, an opposition application or dispute application can be filed against the cited trademark to remove obstacles to registration so that the applied trademark can finally be registered.

(4) If there is a possibility of transfer of the cited trademark that leads to the rejection of the trademark application, you can negotiate with the owner of the cited trademark and handle the trademark transfer, so that the rights of the cited trademark belong to the person under the name of the applicant. Eliminate trademark conflicts.

(5) If the probability of successful rejection review is obviously low (for example, if the trademark is rejected because the trademark is the same), another application for registration may be considered.
