Although the rain can be washed away temporarily, there will be some sludge behind, so it is very necessary to wash the car at this time.

There are always some things to pay attention to in the trademark registration of car wash shops. After applying for registration, it needs to be reviewed by the Trademark Office, and the shortest time required for final trademark registration is also one year. So what does the Trademark Office mainly examine? Can you pay more attention to whether your trademark meets the requirements according to the content of the review?

The first thing to examine is whether the elements of a registered trademark are one or more elements stipulated by law. The Trademark Law clearly stipulates that the elements of a trademark are copywriting, patterns, letters, numbers, three-dimensional labeling and color composition, as well as the above elements. A combination of several elements or a single element can be registered as a trademark.

The distinctiveness of the trademark itself, "the trademark applied for registration should have distinctive features, which is conducive to identification." The distinctiveness of a trademark is a necessary condition of a trademark and the basis of the exclusive right to use a trademark. The practical application of trademarks in the market is to distinguish the existence of other commodities, so trademark distinctiveness is an important point in trademark recognition. Let's look at the unimportant elements:

(1) The generic name of the product, which directly describes the pattern and logo of the product features.

(2) Too simple/complicated copywriting, patterns, letters, numbers, three-dimensional labels, color composition, or the composition of the above factors.

(3) Each component of a trademark cannot form a whole copy, pattern, letters, numbers, three-dimensional labels, colors, or the composition of the above factors: the composition form is loose and cannot form a whole; Performance information is difficult to connect and lacks important parts.

In addition, trademarks cannot conflict with registered trademarks. If the trademark is similar to the registered trademark of others, it is easy to cause confusion. The trademark cannot conflict with the trademark in the preliminary examination announcement. The trademark announced in the preliminary examination enjoys the right of prior application and is protected by law. If the newly applied trademark is similar to the trademark in the preliminary examination announcement, the Trademark Office will reject the newly registered trademark according to the regulations.

Trademarks cannot conflict with trademarks. Trademark right is 1 an industrial property right recognized by the administrative department for industry and commerce according to relevant laws and regulations and protected according to law. If the newly registered trademark has the same name as others', it will easily lead to confusion in economic activities. Trademark should not conflict with patent right and design copyright. The patent right and copyright of a design are protected by the intellectual property law. If the reproduction and design of a newly applied trademark infringe the copyright or patent right of others, the registration cannot be approved.

Another important point is that trademarks cannot conflict with civil rights. Civil rights are protected by laws and regulations. Without my permission, you may not use other people's portraits, names, stage names or pen names as trademarks.

Last but not least, the application for trademark registration needs to comply with the law. Some elements in the Trademark Law cannot be registered as trademarks, and enterprises should try their best to avoid using trademarks composed of these elements, such as trademarks that are the same as or similar to those of countries and intergovernmental international organizations; Words and graphics that are prone to have adverse effects; Names of administrative divisions at or above the county level and foreign place names known to the public.

Generally speaking, the substantive examination of trademarks by the Trademark Office is the examination of the above materials, so enterprises should always pay attention to the wrong operations that their trademarks can find and correct in time in order to successfully pass the examination.
