Today, everyone must use two methods to deal with trademarks. One is to apply for registration at the Trademark Office, and the other is to purchase a trademark. However, registering a trademark takes a long time and the steps are quite complicated. Many people will choose to purchase trademarks directly, but they will definitely encounter some risks when purchasing, so we should avoid them in time. So what are the risks of purchasing trademarks?

What are the risks of purchasing a trademark?

1. Similar trademarks under an individual family will not be transferred together. In other words, during the trademark transfer process, if there is a trademark that is identical or similar to the transferred trademark, the trademark transfer must be carried out at the same time, otherwise the Trademark Office will reject the transfer application.

2. The materials of both parties are wrong, such as the business license is wrong or the business license has not taken the annual examination normally, the normal annual report is announced, the transferor's signature on the trademark transfer applicant and the agreement signature are inconsistent or have obvious changes, The Trademark Office will require the transferor to certify, and failure to prove the trademark transfer will also be rejected by the Trademark Office.

3. If the purchased trademark is pledged, frozen or has a negative impact, the Trademark Office will also reject the transfer application during the trademark transfer process.

4. The trademark holder has not used the trademark to be transferred without justifiable reasons for three consecutive years. Such trademarks are likely to be withdrawn by others. In other words, if the trademark held by the trademark holder is unstable and may be revoked by the Trademark Office, the trademark transferor will bear huge risks.

If others have registered the same or similar trademark on goods or services beyond the approved scope of application of the right holder.
