The difference between partial rejection and total rejection of trademarks
the trademark office shall notify the applicant in writing of the trademark whose application is rejected and not announced. Here is divided into trademark rejection and trademark partial rejection. The Trademark Law "is identical with or similar to a trademark that has been registered or preliminarily approved by others on the same or similar goods, and the Trademark Office shall reject the application without making an announcement".

trademark rejection-the full name of "trademark rejection notice" means that all trademarks are rejected for the designated use of goods/services. In other words, if the reexamination is abandoned within 15 days after receiving the notice, the application for trademark registration will fail.

partial rejection of trademark-the full name of "notice of partial rejection of trademark" means that the part of the trademark in the designated use of goods/services is similar to the registered trademark that was preliminarily approved and announced in the previous application and has been cancelled for less than one year, in other words, the application for trademark registration is half successful.

If the reexamination is abandoned within 15 days after receiving the notice, the passed part will be automatically preliminarily examined and announced (the announcement period is 3 months), and the trademark registration certificate can be obtained after the completion; If you apply for re-examination within 15 days after receiving the notice, and submit the application for trademark division at the same time for the rejected part, the original trademark will generate a new application number and be preliminarily approved and announced (the trademark registration certificate can be obtained after the announcement period ends for 3 months), and the remaining designated goods or services trademark review and adjudication board will conduct review, and a trademark registration certificate can also be obtained after the announcement period after the successful review.
