Trademark approximation refers to the similarity between the trademark accused of infringement and the plaintiff's registered trademark in font, pronunciation, meaning, graphic composition and color, or the overall structure after the combination of its elements, or its three-dimensional shape and color combination, which is easy to make the relevant public misunderstand the source of its goods or think that its source is specifically related to the goods registered by the plaintiff.
The people's court shall approximately determine the trademark according to the following principles:
(1) Based on the general concern of the relevant public;
(2) It is necessary to compare both the whole trademark and the main parts of the trademark, and the comparison should be carried out separately in the case of isolated comparison objects.
(3) To judge whether a trademark is similar, we should consider requesting to protect the distinctiveness and popularity of a registered trademark.
