Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to register a trademark?
Domestic trademark registration typically takes several months, involving stages such as acceptance, review, and announcement. If rejected or opposed, the process may take longer. We will track each stage and proactively inform you of the progress.
What should I do if my trademark is rejected?
First, examine the reason for rejection and decide accordingly: in some cases, you can reapply by adjusting the category or modifying the design, or you can go through the rejection review process. We will provide suggestions and corresponding costs, and you can make the decision.
Do I need to register an overseas trademark for foreign trade?
If your products are exported and your brand is sold or exhibited abroad, it is recommended to cover at least the main sales countries. You can apply through the Madrid system or in individual countries, and we will prioritize based on your market.
Can individuals apply for a trademark?
Yes, but typically an individual business license is required. If you do not have a license, you can apply under a company, and we can help you handle the entity issues together.
