Remove blocking trademarks through non-use cancellation or invalidation actions. Clear the path for your brand in China.
Request Case AssessmentTwo powerful tools to remove problematic trademarks from the CNIPA register.
Any mark not used in China for 3 consecutive years after registration can be cancelled. Anyone may file — no standing required. The burden of proof is on the registrant to show genuine commercial use.
Challenge the validity of a registered mark on legal grounds: bad faith filing, prior rights, well-known mark protection, geographical indication, agent malfeasance, or violation of prohibitive clauses.
We assess your situation and recommend the most effective action path.
Preliminary analysis of the target mark — registration date, use evidence availability, and applicable legal grounds.
Market research to confirm non-use or gather proof of bad faith. E-commerce platforms, social media, and industry databases.
Prepare and submit the cancellation or invalidation petition to CNIPA with supporting evidence and legal arguments.
Monitor the proceeding, respond to counter-arguments, and if successful, file your own application for the cleared mark.
