The applicant received a trademark correction from the Trademark Office. What is a trademark correction?

There may be some applicants who have never been exposed to trademark correction. This means that the trademark application you submitted complies with the relevant provisions of the Trademark Law, which will shorten the time for trademark registration slightly. .

Trademark application corrections mainly refer to the International Trademark Office making modifications or suggestions to the content of the trademark registration application that does not comply with the relevant provisions of the "Trademark Law". The purpose is mainly to ensure that the modified trademark registration application can comply with the "Trademark Law". According to the provisions of the Trademark Law, registration can be successful.

Generally speaking, when the Trademark Office wants to make corrections, it may be that when you submit a trademark application, some content or written materials do not meet the requirements. The Trademark Office will issue a "Notice of Supplement and Correction of Trademark Registration Application", which shall be corrected according to the specified content and returned to the Trademark Office within 30 days from the date of receipt of the notice. Correct and return it to the Trademark Office within the specified time limit so that the application date can be retained. If the time is up and there is no correction or the correction is not made as required, it will not be accepted.

If the application procedures are basically complete or the application documents basically meet the regulations but still need to be supplemented and corrected, there are generally several situations:

1. The name of the product or service item filled in is not of the same category.

2. The trademark icon is not clear enough.

3. The applicant needs to explain the text in the trademark drawing. The reply to the "Notice of Supplement and Correction of Trademark Registration Application" is a very important step that applicants and agents should pay attention to. It is very likely that improper handling will affect the review progress of the application, and may even seriously affect the invalidation of the application.

4. The name of the product or service item reported by the applicant is irregular or not specific.
