Hello, after getting the trademark registration certificate, here are some things to pay attention to:
Proper custody: the trademark registration certificate is the legal evidence of the trademark right and has extremely important legal effect. Therefore, it must be properly kept to avoid loss or damage.
Check information: carefully check the information on the trademark registration certificate, including the trademark name, registration number, approved goods/services, trademark pattern, registrant's name and address, etc. , to ensure consistency with the information submitted at the time of application.
Comply with the use regulations: the trademark registration certificate indicates the approved scope of goods/services, and the trademark registrant shall use the trademark strictly within this scope and shall not use it beyond the approved scope. At the same time, when using a trademark, the distinctiveness and identifiability of the trademark should be maintained, and the pattern and text of the trademark should not be changed at will.
Pay attention to renewal: the validity period of trademark registration certificate is usually 10 years, counting from the date of approval of registration. Within 6 months before the expiration of the validity period, the trademark registrant shall apply for renewal of registration to maintain the legal effect of the trademark. Failing to apply for renewal within the prescribed time limit, the Trademark Office will cancel the trademark.
Safeguarding trademark rights and interests: Trademark registrants should actively safeguard their own trademark rights and interests and prevent others from infringing upon them. If it is found that others use their own trademarks without permission, they can complain to the administrative department for industry and commerce or bring a lawsuit to the court.
Pay attention to the market dynamics: Trademark registrants should pay attention to the market dynamics and understand the industry information related to their own trademarks, so as to adjust the trademark use strategy in time and prevent the trademark from being diluted or becoming a common name.
Cautiously license others to use: If a trademark registrant intends to license others to use his trademark, he shall sign a trademark license contract to clarify the rights and obligations of both parties and report it to the Trademark Office for the record. At the same time, the trademark registrant shall supervise the use of the licensee and ensure that the licensee uses the trademark in accordance with the contract.
Update information in time: if the name, address or other registered items of a trademark registrant change, it shall apply to the Trademark Office for registration change in time. This can ensure the accuracy of trademark registration information and avoid unnecessary troubles for trademark registrants because of inaccurate information.
In a word, after obtaining the trademark registration certificate, the trademark registrant should conscientiously perform relevant obligations, safeguard his trademark rights and interests, and ensure the legal effect and commercial value of the trademark.
