1. What should I do if the malicious registration of a trademark has been approved? In the commercial field, trademarks include text, graphics, letters, numbers, three-dimensional logos and color combinations, as well as combinations of the above elements. Can be applied for registration as a trademark. Trademarks approved and registered by the state are "registered trademarks" and are protected by law. Trademarks protect trademark registrants by ensuring that they have the exclusive right to identify goods or services, or to license others to use them for remuneration. Trademark squatting can be remedied in the following ways: 1. If the squatted trademark is in the preliminary review announcement period, you can file an objection with the Trademark Office. 2. If the registered trademark has been approved for registration, you can apply to the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board for cancellation within five years after the trademark is registered; if the registered trademark is a well-known trademark, there is no time limit for filing a cancellation application. 3. If the preemptively registered trademark has not been used for a long time after registration, a cancellation application can be filed with the Trademark Office on the grounds that it has stopped using it for three consecutive years. 4. When re-registering a trademark, the trademark cannot be similar to the original trademark. As for the popularity of the trademark, you don’t have to worry about it. As long as the product quality is good and you pay attention to publicity and promotion, you can still achieve good sales. A trademark does not necessarily have to correspond to a business name. 2. How to determine the malicious registration of trademarks? "Malicious registration" refers to the use of unfair means to preemptively register trademarks, domain names, or trademarks that have been used by others and have a certain influence in this field or related fields for the purpose of profit, etc. Trade name and other rights. "Malicious registration" mostly occurs in rights fields where the "first to apply" principle of authorization can bring certain economic or spiritual benefits, so it mostly occurs in trademarks, domain names and trade names. Regarding "malicious registration of trademarks", Article 32 of the Trademark Law stipulates: "You shall not use unfair means to preemptively register a trademark that is already used by others and has a certain influence." Therefore, "malicious registration" refers to the applicant's behavior of using unreasonable or illegal methods to apply to the Trademark Office for registration of a trademark that has been used by others but has not yet been registered. To sum up, if a company's trademark has been maliciously registered by criminals, if the three-month publicity period has passed, the company has other ways to protect its rights, such as filing an application for cancellation of trademark registration. If the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board verifies the situation and finds that the trademark has indeed been registered in bad faith, it can make a decision to cancel the trademark. Of course, the proposed revocation should be within the validity period.
