CHINA’S CLASSIFICATION OF GOODS AND SERVICES

CHINA’S CLASSIFICATION  is a system that all the goods and services that can be validly designated in a trademark application in China according to the relevant regulation from the National Intellectual Property Administration (CPINA). Once the application is submitted, CPINA verifies each of the submitted documents. Based on its verification, CPINA will recommend if the application can be processed further or if more documents or information is needed by them to move ahead with the trademark registration process. Once CPINA has completed the document verification and is satisfied with the same, it starts the process of registering the trademark. The process is lengthy and takes time. The applicant can expect this process to take approximately 6 months.

The list of Trademark Classification of goods or services appearing in the class below are general indications relating to the fields to which, in principle, the goods or services belong. The China Trademark Classification List should therefore be consulted in order to ascertain the exact classification of each individual product or service.

I am glad that you have received the Trademark Certificate. We will help you obtain it as quickly as possible within 6 months. Unfortunately, the other Figurative mark you applied for was rejected by CNIPA. But when you choose, you have chosen Basic Trademark Application, which is also the cheapest service. Please understand. Of course, it is important to choose the Trademark Search Report before applying, as this is the best solution! Attorney from GWBMA will personally come to help you. Thank you for your high evaluation!
