1, the Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce has determined that according to the first paragraph of Article 4 of the Provisions on the Recognition and Protection of Well-known Trademarks: "If a party considers that a trademark preliminarily approved and announced by others violates the provisions of Article 13 of the Trademark Law, it may raise an objection to the Trademark Office in accordance with the provisions of the Trademark Law and its implementing regulations, and submit relevant materials to prove that its trademark is well-known." Article 5 of the Provisions on the Recognition and Protection of Well-known Trademarks stipulates: "In trademark management, if a party considers that a trademark used by another person belongs to the circumstances specified in Article 13 of the Trademark Law and requests to protect its well-known trademark, it may submit a written request to the administrative department for industry and commerce at or above the city where the case occurred and submit relevant materials to prove that its trademark is well-known. At the same time, send a copy to the local provincial administrative department for industry and commerce. " That is, an application for the identification of a well-known trademark through a trademark objection case, or an application for the identification of a well-known trademark in the process of trademark management, shall be identified by the Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.
2. The Trademark Review and Adjudication Board of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce confirmed that the second paragraph of Article 4 of the Provisions on the Recognition and Protection of Well-known Trademarks stipulates: "If a party considers that another person's registered trademark violates the provisions of Article 13 of the Trademark Law, it may request the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board to cancel the registered trademark in accordance with the provisions of the Trademark Law and its implementing regulations, and submit relevant materials to prove that its trademark is well-known." In other words, if you apply for a well-known trademark through a trademark dispute case, you should apply to the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.
3. Apply to the court: Except for trademark objections and trademark disputes, all others can apply to the court for the recognition of well-known trademarks. Generally, only courts above the intermediate level can recognize them.
