The difference between intellectual property rights and trademarks
Legal analysis: the difference between intellectual property and trademark is as follows: intellectual property is knowledge, and trademark is form. Intellectual property rights, also known as intellectual property rights, refer to the exclusive rights enjoyed by the obligee in accordance with the law on the achievements created by his intellectual labor and the marks and reputation in business activities. Trademark is a special legal term. A brand or a part of a brand becomes a trademark after it is registered by the relevant government departments according to law. Trademarks are protected by law, and registrants enjoy exclusive rights.

Legal basis: Article 4 of the Trademark Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), if a natural person, legal person or other organization needs to obtain the exclusive right to use a trademark for its goods or services in production and business activities, it shall apply to the Trademark Office for trademark registration. The provisions of this Law on commodity trademarks shall apply to service trademarks.
