The trademark applied for registration should have distinctive features and be easy to identify.

my country's "Trademark Law" stipulates the conditions that applicants for trademark registration and the trademarks applying for registration must meet. Only those who meet the prescribed conditions can be approved for registration. First of all, Chinese applicants for trademark registration must be legally established enterprises, institutions, social groups, individual industrial and commercial households, and individual partnerships. The trademark applied for registration must have legal elements, that is, it must be words, graphics or a combination thereof, otherwise it cannot be used as a trademark.

The words, graphics or combinations used in a trademark should have distinctive features and be easy to identify. Among them, distinctiveness means that it should have its obvious characteristics. The trademark applied for registration shall not use words or graphics prohibited by law. The trademark applied for registration shall not be identical or similar to a registered trademark that has been revoked or canceled for less than one year. However, if you apply for registration of a trademark that is identical or similar to a registered trademark that has been canceled due to cessation of use for three consecutive years on the same or similar goods, you are not subject to this condition.

Things to note when applying for a registered trademark:

1. Pay attention to the trademark search before application

Trademark search is an important task, and only through the search Only in this way can we understand the status of prior rights and reduce the rejection rate of applications. At present, there are more than one million registered trademarks in my country, especially for clothing, electronic products, food and other commodities. The number of registered trademarks is huge, so it is very easy to apply for registration of the same or similar trademarks on the same or similar products.

2. Enhance self-protection awareness

An enterprise's trademark self-protection awareness is reflected in two aspects: trademark registration and use management. Here we only talk about the protection awareness that should be possessed in registration. Please apply for registration promptly. The Trademark Law stipulates the first-to-file principle. However, some companies lack awareness of trademark registration. As a result, their original trademarks that have been used for many years are registered by others, causing economic losses.
