The trademark has been declared invalid for 3 years. Can others apply for registration?
Yes, Article 50 of the Trademark Law. Where a registered trademark is revoked, declared invalid or not renewed upon expiration, the Trademark Office shall not approve the same or similar trademark registration application within one year from the date of revocation, invalidation or cancellation. Article 44 of the new Trademark Law stipulates: "If a registered trademark violates the provisions of Articles 10, 11 and 12 of this Law, or is registered by deception or other improper means, the Trademark Office shall declare the registered trademark invalid. Other units or individuals may request the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board to declare the registered trademark invalid. "
