Intimate pencils, Mercedes-Benz, Xerox and Rixin.

Step 1: Decide what kind of text, Logo or combination of text and logo will be used to represent your product or service.

Step 2: Conduct a preliminary trademark search, including surfing Google to see if this name has been used in the company name or the name of the product or service. Logo is usually not easy to crash with people. The Trademark Office inquires about the website: If you are not sure whether you collided with someone, ask an expert. If there is a serious car crash, go back to the previous step.

Step 3: Find an agent, or go to the Trademark Office to submit a trademark application yourself. In the latter case, at least find a friend who knows the trademark to check whether the classification of the trademark to be registered is correct. About six weeks after submission, you will receive an application from the Trademark Office, and then the trademark registration will be completed in about one year. Whether the registration is completed or not will not affect the use of the trademark. Even if the registration fails, the trademark will not affect the use, but it is more difficult to sue others for trademark infringement, although they can still sue others for "unfair competition." Documents to be provided: identity certificate, company license (if the applicant/obligee is a company), power of attorney (if there is an agent) and application for registration. The trademark is valid for 1 years and can be renewed afterwards. It should be noted that if the trademark is not used for three consecutive years, it may be invalidated at the request of others or by the Trademark Office.
