Let's talk about trademarks as the future development trend.

since the implementation of the trademark law, it has maintained the stability and order of the trademark market and played a decisive role in the transaction process of the trademark market. However, with the continuous implementation of the trademark law, some imperfections in the trademark law have become increasingly apparent in practice. These imperfections have led to some disputes in the trademark market. It is embodied in the following aspects:

First, there are imperfections and inconveniences in the trademark registration procedure, which makes it impossible for the registered trademark claimant to obtain the trademark registration certificate quickly. Malicious cybersquatting happens from time to time. The examination and approval time of trademark application is too long, and the success rate of examination and approval is too low, which leads to more and more enterprises giving up their own trademark application.

Secondly, the rules of the Trademark Law on punishment are not mandatory enough, and the protection of trademarks is not obvious, and the crackdown on registered trademark infringers is limited. In today's society, there are many fake and inferior commodities, and the counterfeiting practices of famous trademarks are everywhere. The law only stipulates what not to do, but there is no clear punishment, which has little impact on the "brand-name" and other behaviors. To put it simply, in the trademark industry, the cost of infringement is too low, which leads many trademark speculators to repeat infringement and gain benefits.

Based on the above two points, in the future revision of the Trademark Law, the trademark application process will be simplified, and the efficiency of trademark application approval will be improved, so that enterprises can obtain the trademarks they need as soon as possible. It is also very important for colleagues to intensify the crackdown on counterfeit and shoddy trademarks, increase the cost of trademark infringement, and make trademark speculators afraid to commit crimes again after being punished once.

We have been saying that the future development direction of China's trademark law must also be in line with the world. Especially after China's accession to the WTO, it will become the only way to ensure the development of China's world economy and trade and to be in harmony with the relevant laws and regulations on registered trademarks in the world.

in fact, any kind of business is not static, and so is the trademark law. At the beginning, the trademark market was regulated when the trademark law was implemented. However, with the continuous development of the trademark market, all kinds of loopholes in the trademark law have been revealed, and the revision of the trademark law in the later period will inevitably make the trademark trading market more and more standardized.
