Trademark protection in China is based on the 'First-to-File' system, and this coverage is restricted to Mainland China only. For businesses planning to expand internationally, we recommend seeking registration in your target markets ahead of time. This secures your commercial brand usage and allows you to take swift action against any infringement.
Trademarks in China are centrally managed by the Trademark Office of the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA). Applicants must submit their registration applications to the Trademark Office, and trademark rights are only granted upon successful examination and approval."
Applications can be filed with the National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) by individuals or legal entities. Furthermore, foreign individuals or entities are required by law to appoint a qualified agent to handle their applications.
Our service covers trademark searches, preliminary assessment, registration fees, and full application support. With no hidden costs, we provide a comprehensive one-stop solution to handle every detail for your business needs.
