Things we need to pay attention to when buying a trademark:

1. Similar trademarks are transferred together with the trademark registrant’s similar trademark registered on the same product, or on similar products. Identical or similar trademarks registered on the Internet shall be transferred together.

2. A notarized certificate is required. Applications for trademark transfer generally require the submission of the original notarized certificate stating that the trademark transferor agrees to transfer the trademark. During the trademark transfer process, if the original notarized certificate of trademark transfer is not submitted, the Trademark Office will give the applicant an opportunity to make corrections. If the applicant fails to make corrections by the time limit or does not make corrections as required, the transfer application will be disapproved or deemed abandoned.

3. Whether the nominal address of the trademark registrant is consistent with the name and address on the business license. If the name and address on the business license of the transferor are inconsistent with the name and address on the transferred trademark registration certificate, The Trademark Office will reject the transfer application. According to the provisions of the Trademark Law, if the name or address of the registered trademark owner changes, the change procedures must be completed. If corrections are not made within the due date or are not made as required, the transfer will not be approved or deemed abandoned.

4. To prevent the transferor from repeatedly transferring a registered trademark, the transferee cannot just listen to the transferor’s words and the trademark registration certificate provided, but must investigate whether the transferor is the trademark registrant, and whether the transferor’s name is consistent with the Trademark Office files. Whether the name of the applicant recorded matches. Since the Trademark Office's review cycle for trademark transfer applications has been extended to 6 to 12 months, it is sometimes difficult to obtain accurate information from the Trademark Office's "China Trademark Network" alone.
