A certification trademark is a mark that is controlled by an organization that has the ability to supervise a certain kind of goods or services and used by an entity or individual other than the organization for its goods or services to prove the origin, raw materials, manufacturing methods, quality or other specific quality of the goods or services. The certification trademark shall be registered by an organization that has the ability to supervise, and shall be used by persons other than the organization. The registrant shall not use the certification trademark. It is a mark used to prove that the goods or services themselves are from a certain place of origin or have a certain quality. As long as the goods or services provided by the parties meet this specific quality and go through the prescribed procedures with the registrant, the certification trademark can be used, and the registrant shall not refuse to use it.

 How to apply for registration of certification trademark or collective trademark

A collective trademark is a sign registered in the name of a group, association or other organization for use by members of the organization in commercial activities to indicate the user's membership in the organization. A collective trademark is not a trademark of an individual enterprise, but a trademark jointly owned and used by members of an organization composed of several enterprises or individuals. Collective trademarks shall be jointly used by members of the organization, and those who are not members of the organization shall not use or transfer them. In order to adapt to the characteristics of "shared" and "shared" collective trademarks, uniform rules should be formulated for their registration, use and management, and made public for collective members to abide by under the supervision of the public.


Geographical indications refer to signs indicating that a commodity originates from a certain region, and that the specific quality, reputation or other characteristics of the commodity are mainly determined by the natural factors or human factors of the region.

The validity period of certification trademark and collective trademark is 10 years, and the exclusive right is calculated from the date of approval and registration.
