After passing the preliminary examination of trademark registration, if it is opposed, the trademark will not have legal effect at this stage.

An objection means that a third party has raised an objection to the registration of a trademark, usually because they believe that the mark conflicts with their own trademark or violates the provisions of trademark law. The Trademark Office will review and investigate the objection to determine whether a conflict or violation exists.

During the opposition period, the trademark registration applicant needs to wait for the Trademark Office to process and decide the objection. If the Trademark Office ultimately decides that the objection is invalid or resolves the objection, the trademark registration will proceed. However, before the objection is resolved, the trademark does not have legal effect, that is, the trademark registrant cannot enjoy the rights and protection brought by trademark registration.

It should be emphasized that the legal effect of trademark registration usually occurs after the trademark registration certificate is issued. Only after the trademark is successfully registered and a certificate is issued, the trademark registrant can enjoy the legal rights and protection of the trademark.
