1, check with China Trademark Network.
First of all, of course, I made a trademark inquiry in official website, the State Trademark Office. This channel is still free. Business friends can search for Chinese trademarks. After entering the system, users can see the main functions: trademark approximate query, trademark comprehensive information query, trademark status query, error information feedback and operation guide. Trademark approximate query is the most commonly used trademark query method, through which the registration risk of general trademarks can be determined. Queries include Chinese character query, pinyin query, English query, numerical query, graphic query and so on. After entering the system, users can click "Trademark Approximation Query" and then enter the relevant interface.
2. Consult the entrusted agency.
First of all, the trademark applicant determines the trademark that needs to be registered (Chinese, English and graphics are separated), and the commodity category used by the trademark is based on the Nice classification table, and the corresponding small commodities are selected. When they are ready, they can go to the official open platform or entrust an agency to inquire. It may be difficult to judge the similarity of trademarks by querying the trademarks themselves. Of course, the entrusted agency can solve these problems professionally and give detailed answers to improve the possibility of successful trademark registration.
3. Go to the lobby of the Trademark Office by yourself.
This only applies to trademark applicants in Beijing. As we all know, the Trademark Office is in Beijing. Because the registration fee is not high, foreign friends go to Beijing just to inquire about the registered trademark, which is a bit expensive, so it is not recommended for foreign friends to use this method. For trademark registration inquiry, you only need to queue up at the Trademark Office in person and submit the scope of use of the trademark and goods or services, and word mark will produce query results within minutes; Graphic trademarks will produce query results within 24 hours.
4, query with trademark software
You can search online and download some professional software authorized by the Trademark Office. First of all, you should make clear the category of products or services you want to operate, and then make a general trademark inquiry. However, inquiring about trademark approximation requires certain trademark professional knowledge, and judging whether it is an approximate trademark or not, the success rate of registration also needs to be judged. Otherwise, it is useless to do anything, just because there is no professional knowledge, and registration wastes time and money.
