Is your trademark recognized in China? Having branded goods manufactured in China doesn’t protect you from your brand name being seized. China is a primary-to-file jurisdiction for logos, this means that if you don’t claim your trademark, someone else will!
The Chinese Trademark Registration Law states: “Any natural person, legal entity or other organization intending to acquire the exclusive right to use a trademark, including service mark, shall file an application for the registration of the trademark with the Trademark Office”.
China Trademark Registration squatters will specifically register the logos of foreign owned businesses. Protect your production operations in China from being ransomed ransom by threats of trademark infringement. Especially, before you even bring your business plans to set up a business in China.
Even though this is your own brand name with offices in a foreign company or corporate offices in China. Don’t be held ransom or forced to buy the rights to your own copyright ideas, get protection against trademark infringement in China and register your trademark, don’t delay.
Protection against Customs
The patents, registrations, or trademarks you have to protect your foreign business must be valid in China. Protect yourself against the risk of your products be labeled as counterfeit goods and seized by Chinese Customs.
Be aware of product protection in China.
In a good deal of cases, foreign trademark has no relevance in China. These intellectual properties will be subject to confiscation by Chinese Customs officers. The only way to protect your products in China and prevent Chinese Customs seizure is to begin Chinese trademark application.
