After the Trademark Office approves the application for trademark registration, the applicant will receive the Trademark Registration Certificate as an official proof of the exclusive right to use the trademark. However, if the applicant loses this important certificate of rights, or fails to receive the Trademark Registration Certificate issued by the Trademark Office in time, the effective exercise of the exclusive right to use the trademark will be affected. In this case, how should the applicant respond?
According to the Regulations for the Implementation of the Trademark Law, the applicant may submit an application for the replacement of the Trademark Registration Certificate to the Trademark Office for the loss or damage of the Trademark Registration Certificate. The following is the applicant's emergency response in this case:
1.Submit an application for reissuance of the Trademark Registration Certificate
The applicant needs to submit a detailed application for the reissuance of the Trademark Registration Certificate to the Trademark Office. In the application, it is necessary to provide key information such as the type of goods or services approved for the use of the trademark, the trademark registration number, etc. If the applicant entrusts a trademark agency to act on its behalf, it is also necessary to submit a legal and valid power of attorney.
2.The Trademark Office examines the application materials
After receiving the application for recertification, the Trademark Office will carefully review the materials submitted by the applicant. This includes checking information such as the class of the trademark for approved use, the trademark registration number, etc., to ensure that it is consistent with the information in the database. At the same time, the Trademark Office will also confirm whether the applicant's information is accurate and whether the registered trademark is still valid.
3.Processing applications
If all the information is complete and in accordance with the requirements, the Trademark Office will process the application for recertification. The entire replacement process usually takes three to six months. During this period, the applicant can re-obtain the Trademark Registration Certificate.
In case of emergency, the applicant can re-obtain the Trademark Registration Certificate through the supplementary certificate process to ensure the effective exercise of the exclusive right to use the trademark. However, in order to avoid unnecessary time and expense, it is recommended that the applicant properly manage and keep his Trademark Registration Certificate.
