It should be useless to limit how many categories a trademark can be registered, but even many large enterprises will not choose to register all categories of trademarks because it takes a lot of time and money to maintain. Since May of 14 and 1 year, China has adopted the trademark system of "one standard and multiple categories", which has delighted many business operators. What does this mean?

One standard and multiple categories means that an applicant for trademark registration can apply for the same trademark to register multiple categories of trademarks through one application, which saves the trouble of resubmitting the application many times. Therefore, it is suggested that enterprises determine several types of trademarks for registration according to their own development needs and economic strength, combined with the opinions of professional trademark consultants.

So what should we pay attention to about the multi-category problem of trademark registration? That is to say, only one registration certificate is issued for a trademark, and many people mistakenly think that there will be multiple certificates for a multi-class registration of a trademark. But in fact, not every kind of application will get a registration certificate. If certain categories are rejected, the trademark registration certificate will only record the approved categories and the approved trademarks or services.
