The trademark was rejected, some chose to apply for rejection for review, some reapplied, and some applicants re-registered the trademark at the same time. How to do it scientifically? First of all, we must analyze the reasons why the trademark was rejected!
Let's see if the trademark you applied for was rejected for absolute reasons. The absolute reason for rejection is that the trademark law clearly stipulates that registration is not allowed:
Article 10 of the Trademark Law involves national names, military symbols, symbols of international organizations, the Red Cross and Red Crescent, ethnic discrimination and deception, harmful moral customs and adverse effects, place names related to county-level divisions, etc.
Article 11 of the Trademark Law deals with generic names, figures, models, signs describing the characteristics of goods or services and signs lacking distinctiveness.
The restrictive provisions of Article 12 of the Trademark Law on the registration of three-dimensional trademarks;
Provisions on the protection of geographical indications in Article 16 of the Trademark Law, etc.
If the trademark applied for registration is rejected in violation of the above provisions, the appeal or application for trademark rejection review is invalid. Therefore, Bian Xiao generally does not recommend that you waste your time and energy to do the examination, and suggests that you directly apply for a new trademark registration. However, if you choose an experienced agent with a good chance of winning, this will not happen generally, so you must be careful when choosing an agent.
Second, if the reason for the rejection of a trademark is a relative reason rather than an absolute reason explicitly prohibited by the Trademark Law, it is generally feasible to apply for a trademark rejection review. You can also help re-apply for a trademark to form double insurance.
The above are the intellectual property rights for everyone to organize and share. Can I reapply if the trademark is rejected? I hope you can understand more clearly what to do if the trademark is rejected by reading the above contents. Is it a review or a re-registration? Help!
