Requirements for transfer of registered trademarks

Article 42 of the Trademark Law stipulates that if a registered trademark is transferred, the trademark registrant shall transfer the same or similar trademarks registered on the same or similar goods together; If it is not transferred together, the State Trademark Office shall notify it to make corrections within a time limit; If it fails to make corrections within the time limit, it shall be deemed as giving up the application for transferring the registered trademark. The purpose of "turning together" is not to cause confusion and misunderstanding among the public. If the registered trademark owner only transfers some identical and similar trademarks, it will lead to two or more market participants using two identical and similar trademarks on the same and similar goods, thus losing the role of trademarks in distinguishing different producers or service providers, leading to misunderstanding among consumers and market confusion. Of course, if the trademarks registered on the same or similar goods are not the same or similar, they do not belong to the scope of "transfer together".
