TRADEMARK REGISTRATION

China is the birthplace of imitations and counterfeits, so it is quite common for companies to misuse logos and brands; do not take risks, if you are going to make up your brand in China, you better register it before to protect your image.

In DPI we have experts who can support you with the registration both in Mexico and China:

For registration in Mexico

  • Our legal team will carry out on your behalf the process of registering the Word Mark and Logo with the competent Chinese authorities.

  • We will advise you to select the category and type of registration that suits you best.

  • The service will be offered in 2 stages (each with its fixed cost):

1st Phase: Feasibility Study. A phonetic search of the trademark to be registered will be made to check if there is already a similar trademark previously registered with the IMPI; since, if this were the case, the registration would not proceed.
In case of finding that a registration already exists, the client will be able to re-design their logo and/or change brand name, and a search will be done for the new name.

2nd Phase: Application for Registration. If the trademark to be registered passes the feasibility study, then you can proceed with the user registration process before the IMPI and then enter the corresponding trademark registration application.

  • The procedure has an estimated time of 13 months, and may vary if objections, oppositions or other events are presented.

  • Important: the hiring of this service does not guarantee that the authority will approve its procedure.

(Payment does not include legal defenses in case of objections or oppositions).

Important: contracting this service does not guarantee that the authority will approve your procedure.
