Item AB is the responsibility of the National Trademark Office.
The General Provisions of the Trademark Law clearly stipulate that the industrial and commercial administration department of the State Council shall establish a Trademark Review and Adjudication Committee. Responsible for handling trademark disputes. “Trademark disputes” here include various types of trademark review cases that the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board is responsible for: trademark rejection review, trademark opposition review, registered trademark cancellation review, and registered trademark dispute adjudication. Article 41 of the Trademark Law stipulates matters related to filing a review application with the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board if there is a dispute over a registered trademark. The "registered trademark dispute" here refers to the type of case in which a dispute ruling application is submitted to the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board for a registered trademark in accordance with the Trademark Law, and a request is made to cancel the registered trademark.
