商標太相近 美航控告旅行社混淆視聽
當自己的商標與他人的商標發生近似關係時,除了依照官方的指示處理之外,利用私下協調的方式也是不錯的選擇,如簽訂商標並存同意書,來維持自身商標的專用權。此外,若在商標申請前,早已經發現有近似商標存在,不妨以私下調解的方式,如劃清商品使用類別範圍等等。上述做法不僅能為彼此減少在商標申請過程的阻礙,還能減少商標侵權的損害及花費。
When the trademark is similar to others’ trademark, in addition to the instructions in accordance with the official action, it is also a good choice to use the private coordination method, such as: signing a trademark coexistence agreement to maintain the exclusive right of the trademark. In addition, if you found similar trademark before submitting the trademark application, you could take coordination method such as clarifying the goods’ range. It could not only reduce the barrier in the stage of application, but also reduce the damage and payment of trademark infringement.
