FAQ: Is the success rate of trademark rejection review high?
After a trademark is partially rejected, there are three situations as follows depending on the attitude of the applicant:
1. Without review, it will be automatically divided;
2. , do a review and apply for manual division;
3. Do a reexamination and do not apply for manual division.
01. No reexamination, automatic division. If the trademark applicant does not do reexamination, the Trademark Office will automatically divide the part of the trademark that has been initially reviewed and the part that is not approved for registration. Some products that have been initially approved for this trademark will directly enter the preliminary announcement. After the three-month announcement period has expired and there is no objection, a trademark registration certificate will be issued and registered. In short, if there is no review, there is no need to apply for division and you can just wait for the trademark to be certified.
