Start MonitoringComprehensive coverage across all channels where your brand can be threatened.
Daily review of all newly published trademark applications. We flag identical and similar marks across all 45 classes.
Monitor for phonetic equivalents and popular Chinese transliterations of your brand name. Often the most common infringement vector.
Track applications in related classes. CNIPA may consider cross-class similarity — we catch what basic searches miss.
Monitor .cn, .com.cn, and popular TLDs for registrations containing your brand name.
Track listings on Tmall, JD.com, Pinduoduo, and 1688.com for unauthorized use of your brand.
Monitor Chinese company name registrations. A registered company name can be used to justify trademark applications.
Our system scans CNIPA publications daily. When a conflicting mark is found, our team reviews it immediately.
We analyze the threat level: identical mark? similar goods? bad-faith indicators? You get a clear summary.
We recommend the best response: file opposition, negotiate, or monitor further. You decide, we execute.
What does trademark monitoring in China include?
We monitor CNIPA weekly gazettes for identical and similar marks, Chinese transliterations, cross-class applications, domain registrations, and e-commerce platform listings.
How quickly are you alerted to conflicting marks?
We provide a 48-hour alert for any potentially conflicting marks. Given China’s 3-month opposition window, this gives you enough time to take action.
Why is monitoring important in China’s first-to-file system?
Without monitoring, a third party could register a similar mark and you might not discover it until it’s too late to oppose. Monitoring is your early warning system.
What happens if you find a conflicting mark?
We assess the risk level, notify you within 48 hours, and recommend action: opposition filing, negotiation, coexistence agreement, or other strategic options.
Can you monitor trademarks in specific industries only?
Yes. We can customize monitoring scope by Nice classes, specific competitors, or industry sectors. This reduces noise and focuses on marks that truly threaten your brand.
In China, if you don't watch, someone else will file. Start monitoring today.
