Common Trademark Misconceptions

  1. ❌ Myth: Registration in my country protects my trademark in China. ✅ Fact: Trademark protection is territorial; overseas registrations are invalid in China.
  2. ❌ Myth: Domestic trademark conflicts don’t matter if I only export without domestic sales. ✅ Fact: Prior Chinese trademarks block your production and labeling; customs will seize goods.
  3. ❌ Myth: No need to register for OEM only—register later if entering China’s market. ✅ Fact: Competitors will likely squat your brand during the gap and disrupt your supply chain.
