infringement on trademarkAppraisal Background

Trademark infringement refers to the use of an identical or similar trademark to the trademark owner on the same or similar goods without the permission of the trademark owner, or other behaviors that interfere with or hinder the trademark owner from using its registered trademark and damage the legitimate rights and interests of the trademark owner. The infringer is usually liable to stop the infringement, and the perpetrator who knew or should have known that the infringement was infringement is also liable to compensate. If the circumstances are serious, you will also bear criminal liability.
trademark infringement identification mainly adopts the following standards: the first is to use the attention of consumers and operators as the criterion for judgment; the second is to conduct partial and overall comparison methods to determine whether it is trademark infringement. Once a trademark is infringed, you can apply for compensation. The purpose of trademark infringement identification is to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of trademark registrants, regulate market order, and protect consumer rights and interests.
As an independent third-party inspection and testing organization under Guoke Holdings, Zhongke Testing has the qualifications for intellectual property appraisal and can provide trademark infringement appraisal services.
