Since the Trademark Law was passed last year, the State Council Legislative Affairs Office (SCLAO) has now solicited comments for a draft of the revised Trademark Law Implementing Regulations by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce (SAIC),
The revisions of the provisions relate to dealing with sound marks, trademark examination, regulation of trademark agents, and third party liability for trademark infringement. Comments are due by February 10, 2014.
The final Implementing Regulations will go into effect the same date as the revised Trademark Law (May 1, 2014).
