Application Details

Excerpted from response to question #18 in TLD application:

"The mission of the .商标 gTLD (“商标” in simplified Chinese is the equivalent to the English term “Trademark”) Registry is to provide leading gTLD registry services to global trademark holders seeking to provide accurate and specific trademark related information to the Greater China and global Chinese speaking markets.

The purpose of our application is to, upon approval, execute on our goal to reduce intellectual property rights related issues, specifically related to trademarks, and subsequently improve global cooperation.

As a result of increasing global trade and global economic interdependence, country-to-country intellectual property rights infringement related issues as well as lawsuits are rising. This is especially true with regards to “China-to-Other Country” and “Other Country-to-China” intellectual property rights related cases. However, Chinese businesses and the Chinese government have been focusing more and more energy and attention towards addressing and resolving these concerns. Both of these points can be clearly demonstrated by looking at solid data provided by highlights listed in an article published on 4⁄22⁄2012 by the China Intellectual Property News in 2011 titled: Ten Years of Chinese Trademarks:

•The total amount of trademark applications in China reaches 8,213,000. •The total amount of trademark registrations in China reaches 5,545,000. •The amount of trademark applications for registration is over 1,000,000 in 2010. •The amount of well-known trademarks recognized by Chinese Administrative Authorities is over 2000. •The amount of geographical indications is over 1100. •The total amount of Customs Recordation for trademarks reaches 8853. The amount of the infringing products detained by China Customs reaches 108,000,000 in 2010. •The amount of Administrative Lawsuits for trademarks accepted by Chinese Courts reaches 2026 in 2010. •China concentrates on the special actions against the IPR infringements, manufactures and sales of counterfeit goods from October 2010 to March 2011. By January 7, 2011, the amount of the infringement and counterfeit cases handled by Administrations for Industry and Commerce reaches 16,036. Within them, there are 2439 cases regarding trademarks owned by foreign parties.

It is often very clear that intellectual property conflicts commonly arise out of not knowing what actual intellectual property rights others have, and that many conflicts are non-voluntary and non-malicious in nature especially with regards to trademarks since trademark registration regulations differ from country to country. Furthermore, currently, an open global trademark platform for checking trademarks and related information does not exist therefore resulting in continued conflicts.
