How to correctly apply for trademark use license in trademark transactions?

Under normal circumstances, if you apply through an agency, you will be provided with a use license, which stipulates the license period and the responsibilities and obligations of both parties. Calculated according to the trademark transfer cycle, it is usually one to two years. During this period, it should be able to be transferred to the seller smoothly, and then the permission will be invalidated on its own. The specific matters of the transaction can be clearly stated in the trademark transaction contract. If you handle the transfer procedures by yourself, you can search on Baidu and download a sample license. Another method is to go to the Trademark Office for "license filing", but this method is mostly used for long-term licensing. If it is a direct transaction, it is generally not necessary.

Is there a market for trademark transactions?

There is definitely a market, but it is not a peak period for the time being.

In the future, it will be increasingly difficult to register trademarks, and the last ones registered are all rare characters or cannot be registered at all. At that time, Chinese trademarks can only be transferred through trademark transactions. After all, there are only so many Chinese characters, and they are composed of characters. There are only so many groups, and sooner or later there will be a period when all registrations are completed. Therefore, trademark trading will become the main way to obtain trademarks in the near future. Of course, English trademarks, multi-character trademarks, sound trademarks, etc. are excluded.

It is difficult to predict the future market for trademark transactions. There are many registrations now, but the overall pass rate is not high. Buyers are pursuing high-quality and high-quality trademarks, and their price affordability is not very high. In this case, It is recommended to buy one with a moderate price of 1-2W, which is much more cost-effective than the time and cost of registration. Because in the end, the time value you create in two years is definitely more cost-effective than waiting for the trademark to be issued.

It is basically not recommended to register two-character trademarks now. The rejection rate is 80%. Three- or four-character trademarks can still be tried. Last year, the number of domestic applications was 2.8 million, and there will be more every year in the future. There is a growth rate of about 20%, so if you can’t meet the market, you can only buy it if you can’t register.
