Trademark registration application procedure

1, registration preparation

Select the registration method

One way of registration is to apply for registration in the Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce; Another way of registration is to entrust an experienced trademark agency to organize agency services.

Step 2 prepare materials

Prepare 5 pieces of trademark patterns (5 pieces of colored trademarks with specified colors, black and white ink 1 piece), with the length and width not exceeding 10 cm and not less than 5 cm. If the direction of the trademark pattern is unclear, the upper and lower parts are indicated by arrows; If an individual applies, he/she needs to show his/her ID card and submit a copy, plus a copy of his/her business license. The business scope is consistent with the registered trademark; If an enterprise applies, it shall present and submit a copy of its business license; An application for trademark registration stamped with the official seal of the unit.

Step 3 start applying

4. Apply according to the classification of goods and services.

Goods and services are divided into 45 categories, including 34 categories of goods and 1 1 category of services. When applying for registration, the category of goods or services using trademarks shall be determined according to the classification in the Classification Table of Goods and Services; Where the same applicant uses the same trademark on different categories of goods, it shall apply for registration according to different categories.

5. Determination of application date

This is the most important point: because China adopts the principle of applying first in trademark registration, once you have a trademark dispute with other enterprises, the enterprise with the earlier application date will be protected by law. Therefore, it is very important to establish the application date, which is based on the date when the Trademark Office receives the application.

Then there are three procedures: trademark examination, preliminary examination announcement and registration announcement. It should be emphasized that a trademark that has passed the preliminary examination of the Trademark Office can not be registered until three months after the announcement, and the trademark is protected by law. The period of validity of a registered trademark is ten years, counting from the date of approval of registration. If it is necessary to continue to use the trademark after the expiration of the validity period, it may apply for the renewal of the trademark registration.

6. Obtain a trademark registration certificate

After a trademark is registered, the Trademark Office issues a certificate to the registrant.

If it is organized by an agent, the agent will send the trademark registration certificate to the registrant; For direct registration, the registrant shall obtain the trademark certificate from the Trademark Office within three months after receiving the Notice of Obtaining the Trademark Registration Certificate. At the same time, he shall also bring with him a letter of introduction for obtaining the trademark registration certificate, the witness's ID card and its photocopy, the original business license and the photocopy stamped by the local industrial and commercial department, the notice of obtaining the Trademark Registration Certificate, and the certificate of change issued by the industrial and commercial department if the name of the trademark registrant changes.

Note: It usually takes about one year to three and a half years from the application to the issuance of a new trademark, in which the acceptance and formal examination of the application takes about one month, the substantive examination takes about 24 to 30 months, the objection period is three months, and the approval announcement takes about two months to the issuance of the trademark.
