Does trademark registration need to go to the local industrial and commercial bureau?

Trademark registration does not necessarily have to be done locally. Nowadays, trademarks can be processed online and offline. Offline processing means going to the local trademark acceptance window, and online processing means self-service online application or entrusting a trademark agency to handle it.

Not every city has a trademark acceptance window, but only in provincial capitals and some larger cities. If there is no local trademark acceptance window, you have to go to the trademark acceptance window in the provincial capital city or weekly reporting city, which will take a lot of time, labor costs, material costs, etc. Trademark registration cannot be completed in one go, so running back and forth is not that convenient.

Among them, there are no geographical restrictions when applying to register a trademark online. As long as you meet the trademark application conditions, you can apply for a trademark. For online trademark processing, you can apply on the Trademark Office website yourself, or go to a professional agency website to handle it yourself; you can also directly entrust a professional trademark agency to handle it.

So, whether the trademark registration is handled locally is not that important and has no impact on the trademark application.
