Any request for territorial extension to Japan under the Protocol Relating to the Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks shall be deemed to be an application for trademark registration filed on the date of international registration or subsequent designation under the Japanese Trademark Act. Therefore, the request shall be examined by the 88av 888 (JPO) in the same way as a national application is examined. If the request falls under any reasons for refusal under the Act, the JPO will issue a total provisional refusal.

For the benefit of holders of International Registrations, the JPO provides the following information regarding the most commonly issued grounds of provisional refusals, how to respond to them and the unique procedures when designating Japan.

The JPO is unable to accept the indication of goods and services if its scope is considered to be too vague in Japan, even if the said indication is registered in the International Register or included in the alphabetical list of goods and services of the NICE Classification.

The trademarks for so-called "retail or wholesale services" can be protected in Japan, providing that the date of international registration or subsequent designation is on or after April 1, 2007. Please refer to the “Notice regarding Trademark System for Retail and Wholesale Services” on the JPO Website atNotice regarding Trademark System for Retail and Wholesale Services

88av 888九一九色国产

A trademark which falls within the category of trademarks registrable under the Trademark Act is a trademark which is used now or which is intended to be used in the near future. The veracity of use or intention of use of the trademark in regard to all the designated goods and services is doubted if the range of the goods and services listed in one class is too wide. Therefore, such an application does not conform to the requirements as provided in the principal paragraph of Section 3(1) of the Trademark Act.

This practice applies to international registrations which are registered or subsequently designated on or after April 1, 2007.

Please see the JPO Website at for the examination guideline corresponding to the Principal Paragraph of Article 3 (1) of the Trademark Act.

Holders of an international registration who seek to overcome the grounds for provisional refusals by limiting/amending the list of goods and services have two options indicated below.

88av 888app下载安装

The request for an amendment of the list of goods and services is a formal procedure according to Article 68-28 of the Japanese Trademark Act. The JPO does not require a payment of fees to file a request for an amendment. The list of goods and services may be amended by filing a written request for amendment with the JPO. The request must be presented to the JPO through the intermediary of a representative domiciled in Japan within three months from the date of pronouncement of the NOTIFICATION OF PROVISIONAL REFUSAL. Please consult your attorney in Japan for details since the procedures and the format for requesting an amendment must be in the Japanese language only.

Please note that the request for an amendment of the list of goods and services cannot be submitted directly to the JPO via e-mail.

88av173 88av1043 cc

The request for a limitation of the list of goods and services is a formal procedure according to Rule 25 of the Common Regulations under the Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks and the Protocol Relating to that Agreement. The list of goods and services may be limited by presenting a written request for limitation with the prescribed fee to WIPO. Please note that the request must be filed with WIPO directly using the official form (MM6).

A limitation shall have effect when it is registered in the International Register. The limitation recorded in the International Register is effective in respect of the designation of Japan as long as the case is pending before the JPO. A case is considered to be pending before the JPO:(a) not only the period of three months from the date of pronouncement of the NOTIFICATION OF PROVISIONAL REFUSAL but also until the pronouncement of the DECISION TO REFUSE A TRADEMARK REGISTRATION, and (b) even after the pronouncement of the DECISION TO REFUSE A TRADEMARK REGISTRATION, subject to the fact that the holder has made a request for an appeal examination to the JPO within three months from the date of pronouncement of the DECISION TO REFUSE A TRADEMARK REGISTRATION.

However, the examiners of the JPO will not be aware of the fact that a request for a limitation has been filed with WIPO until the JPO receives the notification of recording a limitation from WIPO. In such cases, it is possible that the examiners of the JPO may issue the DECISION TO REFUSE A TRADEMARK REGISTRATION or the STATEMENT OF CONFIRMATION OF PROVISIONAL REFUSAL. Therefore, in order to avoid such a situation, please inform the examiner in charge via e-mail of the fact that the holder has filed a request with WIPO.

Please contact WIPO for details about the request for a limitation.

Please see WIPO Web site at http://www.wipo.int/treaties/en/text.jsp?file_id=355319 ( External link ) for Rule 25 of the Regulations under the Madrid Protocol and http://www.wipo.int/treaties/en/text.jsp?file_id=355319 (External link) for the official form for a limitation.(MM6)

The necessity for payment of the second part of the individual fee depends on the filing date of international registration or subsequent designation. This is because the JPO had previously adopted an individual fee consisting of two parts in accordance with Rule 34 (3)(a) of the Regulations under the Madrid Protocol, which it withdrew on April 1, 2023. The details are as follows.
