Detials registration
A:I want to have my new product registered. Do you know what should do for this aftair. Miss Li?
A:找想註冊我們的新產品，您知道該怎麼辦嗎，李小姐？B:You mean the procedure for trademark examination, don't you？
B:您是指商標註冊的程序嗎？
A:Yes.
A:是的。B:It's not complicated. You may contact the Trademark Office. They will send you standard forms for you to fill out.
B:不太複雜，您可以和商標局聯繫，商標局會寄給您標準的表格讓您填寫。A:That sounds quite simple.
A:聽起來很簡單。B:Yes, the Trademark Office gives precedence to the person who files first. It examines the application, issues preliminary approval and publishes the trademark. If there's no justifiable opposition to it, then the registration is approved and a trademark registration cerlificated is issued.
B:是的，商標局對申請在先的予以優先。申請註冊的商標由商標局審查，初步審定後，予以公告。如果沒有正當的異議，就覈准註冊發給商標註冊證。A:Is there a time limit for trademark rights?
A:商標權有有效期嗎？B:Of protection in our country is limited to 25 years. And the trademark rights can be renewed.
B:當然有，在我國商標依法受保護25年，而且商標權可以辦延續手續。A:That's right.
A:太好了。B:Trademark registration may be renewed continuously. But the producer or registrant should apply for the registration renewal every 25 years.
B:商標註冊可以無限期，但生產商或註冊人應每25年申請辦理一次延續手續。A:That' s fair. It is not easy for a producer to establish a well recognized trademark. He has reasons to enjoy such protection.
A:這很公平，生產商闖出一個公認的名牌商標很不容易，他理應享有此等保護。B:Even if the producer forgets to apply for registration renewal, the law grants a 5-month grace period.
B:即使生產商忘記申請辦理商標的延展手續，也可依法享有5個月的寬限。A:That sounds good.
A:那太好了。B:Besides, you must notice that trademark is limited by region.
B:另外，您必須清楚商標受區域限制。A:That is to say.a trademark registered in China will not be legally protected in another country. Am I right？
A:也就是說，在中國註冊的商標不會在另一個國家受到法律保護，對嗎？B:ss the same trademark is also registered in this country.
B:是的，除非同一商標也在另一國註冊。A:Oh.I see. Thanks a lot.
A:哦，我明白了，非常感謝。
