Trademark is a type of asset of individual and organization. To be officially recognized as an owner of that trademark, the applicant needs to submit the trademark registration dossiers to National Office of Intellectual Property in Vietnam (NOIP), pay the examination fee and certificate issuance fee to receive the trademark certificate.
The trademark owner needs to have the consciousness of protecting the trademark certificate. However, if unfortunately, the trademark certificate is misplaced, lost or damaged, torn, stained or faded out that it can no longer be used, the trademark owner may submit the dossier to NOIP to request for re-granting the trademark certificate.
The specific required documents for re-granting the trademark certificate are:
-The declaration for re-granting the trademark certificate;
-01 mark specimen;
-Power of attorney (if submit the dossiers via IP agent).
NOIP will consider the dossier within 01 month from the date of submitting. In case the dossier satisfies the provisions of law, NOIP will issue the decision to regrant the trademark certificate and record into the National Register of Industrial Property. The information in the duplicate version of the trademark certificate will present sufficiently the information in the first-granted trademark certificate and attached with the phrase “re-granting version”.
In case of request for re-granting the trademark certificate does not meet the provisions of law, NOIP will issue the denied decision and clearly sates the reasons.
