The rejection of the trademark means that the trademark registration failed, but it was not sentenced to death. The remedy procedure can be adopted-rejecting the reexamination and preserving the trademark. Failure to re-examine within the specified time will give up the right.
The second state: trademark form review
This state indicates that the trademark is under application data review, and the examiner will review whether the data file submitted by the applicant meets the requirements. If not, you may need to modify the data to correct it, or you may not accept it directly. Therefore, everyone must try to submit standardized application materials, otherwise the trademark registration time will be longer.

The third state: substantive examination of trademarks.
Different from formal examination, substantive examination is to examine whether the applied trademark is legal, whether there are similar trademarks and whether it is significant. If the examiner decides that one item does not meet the requirements in the process, the trademark will be rejected.
The fourth state: the trademark is rejected for review.
After the trademark is rejected, if it passes the examination, a registration announcement will be issued.
The fifth state: trademark announcement.
After the trademark has passed the substantive examination, it will be announced for 3 months.
The sixth state: trademark objection.
During the three-month announcement period, the trademark is at risk of being questioned. When the trademark is questioned, you can naturally wait for the ruling of the Trademark Office, or you can argue it out, enter the objection defense and strive for more opportunities.
The seventh state: the trademark registration is successful.
Successful registration means that the trademark certificate can be issued when the trademark application is completed, and the trademark is officially registered successfully.
