註冊商標程序

你已經開始你的生意，你有一個偉大的標誌，你想用作為商標。或者你有一個服務標記來描述你的服務。你想確定沒有人可以使用這個商標或服務商標，所以你想注册它。雖然你可以使用商標或服務標記而不注册它，但是注册這個標記有幾個好處：

• 登記作為你的所有權要求的通知。
• 如果你需要上法庭，登記有助於支持你的所有權要求。
• 你可以使用商標註冊來幫助你在其他國家獲得注册。

以下是登記註冊商標的程序：

1. 搜索商標記錄
2. 網絡上登記報備，附上你要申請的商標圖案樣品。例如，附上有你商標LOGO的廣告圖樣。
3. 支付申請手續費
4. 等待審核回復。有的時候，需要等上數個月才能知道是否可以得到審核同意或被駁回，而費用是不會被退回的。
5. 雖然沒有規定需要，還是建議委託專業律師代理。如此，你可以得到相關的咨詢服務。
6. 如果需要，也在你商業需要的其他國家申請登記。
