How to transfer idle trademarks?

Trademark is a special legal term. Some brands or brands are called "trademarks" after being registered by the relevant government departments according to law. Trademarks are protected by law, and registrants enjoy exclusive rights. Famous trademarks in the international market are usually registered in many countries. The difference between "registered trademark" and "unregistered trademark" A registered trademark is a trademark protected by law after being registered by the relevant government departments, while an unregistered trademark is not protected by the trademark law.

Trademark is the intangible assets of the company, and there is no very fixed judgment on the value of trademark. As an asset value in the process of investment or operation, trademark refers to the amount of capital contained in trademark assets. It refers to its capital value, not honor or subjective value. Common value judgments usually depend on the recognition of trademarks. Evaluate the identity by the estimated value that the trademark can bring to the company.

The purpose of protecting trademark registrants is to ensure that trademark registrants have the exclusive right to indicate the source of products or services, or to allow others to use them for compensation.

If the trademark is not registered by itself, it should also be notarized at the local notary office to confirm that the signature of the trademark transfer procedure is the applicant himself. The notarization procedure is also very simple, and it needs to be submitted: trademark certificate, transferor's own site, transferor's ID card and several hundred yuan (notarization fee, please consult the notary office for details). Notarization time is very fast. After the notarization is completed on the same day, the notarial certificate will come out within four or five days, and the notary office will inform you that the situation will be slow for about a week. You may think that this is not your signature, but it doesn't matter, because the applicant's ID number and name are yours, and I can solve it by going to the notary office for notarization.

Where a trademark is registered by itself, the trademark assignor and the trademark assignor shall sign an assignment agreement and file an application with the Trademark Office. It is very important that the required materials include the trademark transfer registration application, the trademark transfer contract and the identity documents of both parties to the trademark transfer. You must have this procedure when accepting trademark transfer. It should be noted that try not to change the address within one month after submitting the transfer application, because the Trademark Office will mail the acceptance notice within this month. If the address is transferred, the letter will not be received, which will delay the transfer time. Third, after the transfer application is approved, the Trademark Office will issue the transfer certificate to the recipient. When you see the announcement of trademark transfer, you can formally own the exclusive right to use the trademark. If the trademark is used in advance, it will lead to unnecessary things.

Where a registered trademark is transferred, the trademark registrant shall transfer the similar trademark registered on the same commodity or the same or similar trademark registered on similar commodities together. The Trademark Office shall not approve the assignment that is confusing or has other adverse effects, and shall notify the applicant in writing and explain the reasons. After the transfer of a registered trademark is approved, it shall be announced. The transferee shall enjoy the exclusive right to use the trademark from the date of announcement.
