INTERIM PROVISIONS ON CLAIMS FOR PRIORITY IN APPLYING FOR REGI-
STRATION OF TRADEMARKS
(Approved by the State Council on March 15, 1985, promulgated by
the State Administration for Industry and Commerce on March 15, 1985)
In accordance with Article 9 of the Trademark Law of the People's Republic
of China and Article 4 of the Paris Convention for the Protection of
Industrial Property, the Provisions on claims for priority in applying for
registration of trademarks in China by nationals of the States Parties to
the Paris Convention are formulated as follows:
1. From March 19, 1985, the Trademark Office of the State Administration
for Industry and Commerce of the People's Republic of China shall
entertain claims for priority made by nationals of the States Parties to
the Paris Convention in their application for registration of trademarks
in China.
2. From March 19, 1985, nationals of the States Parties to the Paris
Convention, who after filing an application for registration of a
trademark in any other State Party, file another application for
registration of the same trademark for the same product in China, may
claim priority within six months after the first filing, in accordance
with the Paris Convention.
3. An applicant who claims priority according to the provisions of the
preceding paragraph shall, at the time of filing the application, submit a
written declaration, together with a duplicate of the first application
for registration of the Trademark filed in another State Party to the
Paris Convention. The duplicate shall be certified by the department in
charge of trademarks of that State, and the application date and the
application number shall be clearly stated. The duplicate does not need to
be authenticated, but the other papers required to be submitted to the
Trademark Office shall be authenticated.
When declaring claim for priority, the applicant may, in case the above-
mentioned duplicate and the related papers are not available, submit them
within three months following the date of second filing. If no written
declaration is submitted or the duplicate and the related papers are not
submitted at the expiry of three months, the applicant shall not be
regarded as having claimed priority.
4. When the written declaration is approved, the date of the first
application for registration of the trademark filed in another State Party
to the Paris Convention shall be regarded as the application date in
China.
