With the arrival of winter, hot food plus soup is the best food to keep warm. Noodle restaurants obviously have this advantage, and in summer they also have cold noodles that match the season. It is really a great time all year round. Fast food options in all seasons. How to choose the category of the noodle shop’s trademark?
In fact, we can know from the trademark search on Bajie Intellectual Property that the noodle shop trademark belongs to Class 43-4301-providing catering and accommodation services; 4302-providing housing facilities services. Industries involving basic necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation are all consumables, so there will always be demand, and the market demand is still huge.
In the middle of trademark registration, there will be a phenomenon of unsuccessful approval. This phenomenon is understandable. After all, there are many reasons for unsuccessful approval. With the increase in the number of trademark registrations, the Trademark Office has become more and more difficult to review. The more stringent it becomes, the less likely it is to be approved. What are the reasons that make trademark registration so risky?
①The blind period of trademark examination
There will be a blind period for a trademark within a period of time. The blind period refers to the period when the applicant submits a trademark registration application to the Trademark Office. It will take about 1-3 months to scan and enter into the system. Therefore, this recent application information cannot be queried;
That is to say, it is okay for a company to apply for a recently applied trademark because the information cannot be queried, but the subsequent approval will still not pass. For the blind period, It can be said that even the examiner of the Trademark Office cannot check it, which is an unavoidable risk.
②Examiner’s personal subjective factors
Each registered trademark application is completed manually by each examiner. For the same type of case, different examiners may get completely opposite results. the judgment result. The National Trademark Office assigns each trademark to review randomly, and it is impossible to determine the trademark assigned for review in advance. The state appoints examiners to conduct the review, so it also agrees with the existence of such uncertain factors.
③Announcement period (also called opposition period)
After the trademark passes the preliminary examination, it will enter a three-month announcement period. After the announcement period expires and no one objects, the trademark registration is officially successful. During the announcement period, relevant parties can file objections with the Trademark Office. If the Trademark Office determines that the objection is established, the trademark will be rejected.
Therefore, many risks in trademark registration itself are unavoidable, and foolproof trademark registration success is almost non-existent. This is why trademark transfer will gradually rise. Both of these are ways to obtain a trademark. Effective trademark registration can only be approved successfully if sufficient preparation and search are carried out in the early stage.
