Trademark transferees should pay attention to the following risk points:

1. Determine the trademarked products or services within the company's business scope. If the product or service is significantly different from that of the business, the trademark rights acquired by the transferee will not protect its products.

2. Determine whether the designated trademark is "healthy". Before a company transfers a trademark, it should check to determine whether the trademark is valid, disputed or invalid, and whether it is in a legal situation such as cancellation, licensing, pledge, freezing, etc.; pay attention to the situation of the trademark owner, whether it is in the process of settlement or account cancellation, and whether it is enforced , whether the transferor has the right to dispose of the trademark; understand whether the copyright of the trademark is in the name of others to ensure the stability of rights.

3. Whether other similar trademarks of the transferred trademark are transferred together. If similar trademarks under the same application name are not transferred or punished at the same time, the Chinese administrative department under the State Council shall issue a change notice requiring the transfer of similar trademarks at the same time, otherwise approval will not be granted.

If a trademark is transferred through purchase channels, the amount of the purchased trademark is higher than the amount of a newly registered trademark or an ordinary trademark. In order to reduce transfer risks, avoid civil disputes, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of both parties, it is recommended that the purchased trademark transfer be notarized. At the same time, the contract can stipulate which party will bear the risk of trademark rights becoming invalid during the trademark transfer process.
