Is the application for registration of a geographical indication certification trademark guaranteed to be 100% successful?

I am from the Mazhu Association in Longchuan County, Yunnan. Mazhu is a special agricultural product originating in our local area. We want to make our products bigger and stronger and promote the Longchuan Mazhu brand. I heard that in order to create a brand, we must first register a trademark, so we contacted the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of the Industrial and Commercial Institute. Many trademark agencies also contacted us, but they gave different opinions. We felt that our thinking was very confusing, so we wanted to ask national experts to help us clarify it. Let’s take a look:

1. Can a geographical indication certification trademark be approved 100% after submitting an application for registration? Is there any basis for this?

2. How long does it take for a geographical indication certification trademark to take three months from application to obtaining the certificate? 6 months? A year or how long? Is there any specific time limit?

3. Is the trademark agency a subsidiary of the National Trademark Office? What authorization certificate does it have? Is the CEO or boss of the trademark company very familiar with the leaders of the Trademark Office? Is there any "shortcut" or "green channel" to register a trademark through them, which is not only fast but also 100% guaranteed to obtain the trademark registration certificate?

4. Do local industrial and commercial offices and industrial and commercial bureaus have the authority to approve trademark registration? Can they be agents for trademark registration? Does applying for a trademark through the industrial and commercial system guarantee that a trademark registration certificate will be obtained? If a trademark application through the Industrial and Commercial Bureau (office) is rejected, who should we approach to argue?

1. To be approved, an application for registration of a geographical indication certification mark must comply with the relevant provisions of the Trademark Law, the Implementation Regulations of the Trademark Law, and the Measures for the Registration and Management of Collective Marks and Certification Marks. . As long as it complies with the above laws and regulations, it can be approved. 2. The Trademark Office has always adhered to the "green channel" system in which geographical indication registration applications are queued separately and reviewed in a timely manner. According to the current review speed, if there are no difficulties, the review can be completed within 6 months. 3. Trademark agency organizations are not affiliated agencies of the Trademark Office. The ways to apply for trademark registration are: (1) Entrust a trademark agency registered with the Trademark Office to handle the application. (2) The applicant shall go directly to the trademark registration hall of the Trademark Office to apply. The Trademark Office will handle the matter in accordance with legal procedures. 4. According to the provisions of the Trademark Law, the Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce is in charge of national trademark registration and management, and is responsible for various specific matters of trademark registration. Local industrial and commercial departments at all levels are responsible for the management of the use of registered and unregistered trademarks. They can also provide business guidance to trademark applicants, but they are not responsible for trademark registration review and registration, and are not allowed to engage in trademark registration application agency activities.
