What happens if the address or registrant changes but the trademark does not change?

We all know that even if we can't find it in real life, now for most people, when they open a store, they must first register a trademark, but if their conditions have changed, the trademark may also change accordingly, so some people will be stuck like this, and then if the address registrant changes, but what kind of impact will the trademark not change? For this issue, in my personal opinion, I think it may be revoked by others or will affect the subsequent handling of the trademark. Let's take a closer look at the procedure.

1 Trademarks may be revoked

In fact, it is true that we can meet all kinds of people every day in life, and at the same time, we will encounter all kinds of things, and in the midst of these events, if we are good at understanding, we can learn certain lessons from them. Especially for some store owners, when they register their trademarks, because their address and information match their own, but when these conditions change, their trademarks may be affected accordingly, and they may also be revoked by others.

2. Affect the follow-up process

In fact, for this trademark, we all know that it must be true information when registering, and even the name, address, ** number, ID card number of the registrant, these are completely to be registered, and this information can not be wrong, once there is a mistake, then after verification, there may be a corresponding impact, and it will affect their own procedures, and if you want to transfer this trademark in the future, then it may also be affected accordingly.

Therefore, we should also pay more attention to this aspect of the problem in our daily life, for everyone, when we are doing everything, we must understand some specific situations in advance, or when there are some abnormal phenomena.

1. Affect the transfer and authorization of trademarks

Article 30 of the Regulations for the Implementation of the Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that if the name, address or other registration matters of the trademark registrant are changed, an application for change shall be submitted to the Trademark Office. If the name of the trademark registrant is changed, the certificate of change issued by the relevant registration authority shall also be submitted. If the Trademark Office approves the application, the corresponding certificate shall be issued to the trademark registrant and the trademark shall be announced; If the application is not approved, the applicant shall be notified in writing and the reasons shall be explained.

If it is found that the name and address of the enterprise with the trademark information are inconsistent, the Trademark Office will reject the application, and it is necessary to apply for change before proceeding with the trademark transfer and authorization.

2. There is a possibility that the trademark will be revoked by others

Paragraph 2 of Article 49 of the Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China provides that a registered trademark becomes the generic name of the goods approved for use or is not used for three consecutive years without justifiable reasons, any unit or individual may apply to the Trademark Office for cancellation of the registered trademark.

It is not difficult to see from the law that if the registered trademark ceases to be used for three consecutive years, any individual or unit has the right to apply for cancellation of the registered trademark. If the Trademark Office receives an application for cancellation of the trademark that has not been used for three years, the Trademark Office will send a notice to the trademark registrant, and the address of the notice is based on the address provided by the trademark registrant.

3. Entering the mall or network** will be affected

Generally, when entering the shopping mall or network**, it is necessary to check the trademark information and the name and address of the business license.

4. When handling pledge and other businesses, it will affect the approval

If the trademark name and address are not changed in time, it will also affect the approval when handling bidding, banking, trademark pledge and other businesses.

5. Affect the subsequent renewal of trademarks

The term of use of the trademark is 10 years, and it is still necessary to renew it after the expiration of the period, and the trademark information must also be checked when applying for renewal, and it is found that the trademark name and address have not been changed, and the closer the trademark term, the more troublesome and long the procedures will be, resulting in the trademark not being renewed.

What should I pay attention to when changing a trademark?

1. When the trademark is changed, all the trademarks under the registrant's name need to be changed at the same time, otherwise the Trademark Office will issue a supplement;

2. If the address and name of the trademark registrant are changed, they may be changed together and an application may be submitted;

3. If the address of the trademark registrant has been changed multiple times, the last address may prevail and the change can be made once;

4. If the address of the trademark transfer and renewal is found to be inconsistent, the trademark change and transfer or renewal procedures can be handled at the same time.

What documents are required for the change of name and address of the trademark applicant?

1. A copy of the business license of the enterprise.

2. Power of attorney for application stamped with official seal.

3. Certificate of change issued by the registration authority (required for name change).

The impact is still relatively serious, which will affect the normal operation in the future, and will also lead to the loss of the trademark right, and then in the next few years, there is no way to continue to apply for this trademark, and it will also affect the image of the enterprise.

It will affect the transfer and authorization of the trademark, and will also cause the loss of trademark rights, and if it has been settled in the mall or platform, it will be restricted.

Affects the assignment and grant of trademarks.

It will directly lead to the loss of trademark rights, and you can no longer use the rights of this trademark in the future.

It will also lead to the impact of approval when handling pledge and other businesses, and may not be approved.

It will also affect the stay in shopping malls or e-commerce platforms, which will be subject to certain restrictions.

It will make your trademark lose its value, and the trademark will no longer belong to you, and if it is infringed, then you have no way to protect your rights and interests.

If the name of the company is changed after the trademark registration certificate is obtained, the trademark change procedures shall be completed at the same time.

In the process of using the trademark registration certificate, it should be ensured that the registrant and the user recorded on the certificate are formally consistent, and if the registrant recorded is a former name, there will be a situation where the user and the registrant are formally different, which will affect the normal use of the trademark by the registrant. For example, if a product enters a large supermarket, it will be rejected because your company name does not have this trademark.

In addition, if the address remains unchanged, it is possible to choose only to change the name of the holder when filing the request for change, and there is no requirement that both must be changed at the same time.

Legal basis: Article 49 of the Trademark Law.

If the trademark registrant changes the registered trademark, the name and address of the registrant or other registration matters in the process of using the registered trademark, the local administrative department for industry and commerce shall order it to make corrections within a time limit; If the trademark is not corrected within the expiration of the period, the Trademark Office shall cancel the registered trademark.

1. If your address is changed, but the business license has not been changed, the trademark certificate does not need to be changed.

2. If your business license has been changed, the trademark certificate must be changed, otherwise your trademark rights cannot be guaranteed, and if there is an infringement, this is a big loophole.
