Description

Hong Kong Trademark Registration
INIPA will process your trademark registration in Hong Kong through the
following steps:

Step 1: Trademark Search
Step 2: Trademark registration application
Step 3: Trademark Certification

Hong Kong Trademark the legal basis is the Trademark Act (Trademarks Ordinance, Cap. 559), in force since April 4th, 2003. Even after Hong Kong returned to China,, there is a separate trademark law in Hong Kong („trademarks ordinance“). The principles of “common law” apply. Trademark protection is obtained by registration. It can also be acquired by sufficient public recognition.

Our licensed Trademark Attorneys in Hong Kong will handle your trademark request, check all formalities, and then file with the Intellectual Property Department (IPD). You will receive confirmation of filing and a copy of the filing request. We will contact you immediately if any subsequent office actions require additional information, or if there are any opposition in Hong Kong against your application.
After the formal examination at the IPD the trademark will be published for opposition to allow third parties to oppose if they believe that the mark infringes on their brands. The opposition period in Hong Kong is 3 months after publication. You will receive status updates as soon as your mark is published, and any actions the IPD will take if oppositions are received.
If no oppositions arise and your trademark is formally approved, you can expect registration within 9 to 12 months.
