Why ChinaIPMark

Cheap filing sites file and disappear. We stay until it is done.

Every decision in our service is designed around one thing: your brand ends up protected, not just filed.

Licensed partner agencies

Every filing is submitted by a CNIPA-registered trademark or patent agency. We coordinate, you stay informed.

Government fees shown exactly

Your quote lists the real CNIPA fee and our service fee separately. If the price changes, you see the change.

English end to end

One English-speaking point of contact from your first inquiry until the certificate arrives. No translation apps in between.

Pre-filing search included

We check for conflicts before you pay a cent of official fees and tell you honestly if a mark looks risky.

One office action response

Refusals happen. Standard and Brand Protection plans include one response, which can overturn many initial refusals.

No fake guarantees

We never promise 100% success. We give you an honest risk rating, a clear timeline, and a real plan for the outcome.

FAQ

Quick answers before you write to us

How long does a China trademark take?

CNIPA examines trademark applications in about 4 months. When no refusal or opposition occurs, registration is typically completed in about 8 months from filing.

Can a foreign company register a trademark in China?

Yes. Foreign applicants must file through a CNIPA-registered Chinese agency. Your licensed partner files the application while ChinaIPMark manages the process and all communication in English.

What does the $39 official fee cover?

It is the CNIPA e-filing fee for one trademark class with up to 10 goods or services. We show this exact number on every quote. Nothing is hidden.

What happens if my trademark application is refused?

Refusals occur in roughly one third of applications. Standard and Brand Protection plans include one response to an office action, and we can arrange an appeal review as a separate service if needed.

Do you charge extra for official fees?

No. The $39 CNIPA e-filing fee is listed separately on every quote and invoice. If official fees change, you see the new amount before you pay.

What if my product is already being copied?

Besides registration, we offer trademark monitoring, customs recordal, marketplace takedown support and anti-squatting services. Send us the details and we will recommend the fastest route.
