How long does it take to transfer a trademark?

Legal analysis: Under normal circumstances, it takes about half a year to a year to transfer a trademark. Regarding how long it takes to transfer a trademark, my country's Trademark Law does not provide specific provisions on the review period for trademark transfer. However, according to the current review progress of trademark transfer applications by the China Trademark Office, trademark transfer needs to be handled at the Trademark Office. The process includes: application, acceptance, review, announcement, and issuance of transfer certificate. According to the provisions of the "Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China", trademark holders must apply for trademark notarization, which is usually completed within 3-5 working days and obtain the "Trademark Declaration Notarization Certificate". The Trademark Office will issue the acceptance letter in about 1-2 months and start the review. The Trademark Office will publish an announcement about 5-8 months after accepting the application and issue a "Certificate of Approval of Transfer of Registered Trademark" to both parties. You can receive the "Certificate of Approval of Transfer of Registered Trademark" three to four months from the date of establishment of the application.

Legal basis: "Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China" Article 42: If a registered trademark is transferred, the transferor and the transferee shall sign a transfer agreement and submit the same request to the Trademark Office Make an application. The transferee shall ensure the quality of the goods using the registered trademark. When transferring a registered trademark, the trademark registrant shall transfer all similar trademarks registered on the same goods, or identical or similar trademarks registered on similar goods. For transfers that are likely to cause confusion or have other adverse effects, the Trademark Office will not approve the transfer and will notify the applicant in writing and explain the reasons. After the transfer of a registered trademark is approved, it will be announced. The assignee shall enjoy the exclusive right to use the trademark from the date of announcement.
