Accompagnement stratégique et juridique pour la protection de vos marques en Chine. Équipe franco-chinoise basée à Shanghai.
Registering your trademark is one step. Protecting it over time is another.
The Chinese system is based on mass filings, agile imitators, and an open database. Every day, trademarks similar to yours may be filed without you being notified.
Without active monitoring, you discover too late that a competitor, a former distributor, or a squatter has registered a similar trademark.
Contrairement à l’Europe, le CNIPA ne vous informe pas automatiquement des dépôts similaires.
It is up to you — or your counsel — to set up regular monitoring to:
detect filings that are similar or identical to your trademark,
identify the targeted related classes or sectors,
act within the legal opposition period (3 months after publication).
Without monitoring, no action is possible. Without action, automatic validation.
Our legal monitoring system scans CNIPA databases in real time. We alert you immediately in case of:
filing of a name identical or similar to yours,
visual or phonetic imitation,
attempt to file in a new strategic class,
suspicious actions from your partners or distributors in China.
Here is what we do:
Acting on time costs much less than fixing later.
Legal monitoring is a strategic insurance: it gives you the ability to defend your rights, avoid lengthy disputes, or detect bad faith before it escalates into litigation.
It’s also a strong signal to your competitors: you are present, active, and protected.
