1. The risk is small and the time required is short.

Most intellectual property rights practitioners know that it takes almost 13 months to register a trademark, which is a long time and there is a risk of the application being rejected. It only takes 6 to 10 months to transfer a trademark, and it avoids the risk of trademark application being rejected. For buyers and sellers of idle trademarks, transferring a trademark is a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

2. Article 42 of my country’s Trademark Law stipulates that the owner of a registered trademark may transfer his registered trademark to others within the scope permitted by law. As companies and individuals pay more and more attention to intellectual property rights in recent years, most of the good Chinese characters have been registered trademarks, and many of them are protected in all categories. Therefore, choosing to transfer trademarks is actually picking apples by standing on the shoulders of the predecessors. , the result of trademark buying and selling is often worth the money.
