What is a trademark license? What are the methods of trademark license?

Answer Generally speaking, there are three main types of licenses for registered trademarks: 1. Exclusive license. It means that the trademark registrant himself has no right to use it, but only allows one licensee instead of multiple licensees to register the trademark during the trial period in the area, time and goods or services stipulated in the contract. In other words, there is an exclusive license. Except for the licensee, no one else, including the licensor, can use the trademark in the specified area, time or product. Therefore, the licensee of an exclusive use license contract enjoys exclusive use rights during the contract period. When an infringement of trademark exclusive rights occurs, the licensee of an exclusive license may lodge a complaint with the industrial and commercial department on his own or together with the registrant. And can bring a lawsuit to the People's Court on its own initiative. 2. Exclusive use license. It means that in addition to the trademark registrant himself using the registered trademark, only one licensee is allowed to use it in the region, time and goods or services specified in the contract. That is to say, except that the registered trademark licensor and licensee can use it, no third party will use the trademark during the contract period. 3. Universal use license. It means that in addition to the registrant's own use and registered trademark, the registrant can also license more than one licensee to use its registered trademark in the region, time and specified goods or services specified in the contract. The characteristic of a general license is that in addition to the trademark registrant himself, multiple licensees can also be licensed to use the trademark.
