Shanghai intellectual property services provided by Tannet are mainly concerning trademark, patent and copyright. Shanghai's first intellectual property protection center was officially set up last year in the city's Pudong New District. A complaint channel will also be launched to investigate suspected violations of patents, trademarks and copyrights. The center will work with Shanghai intellectual property court to enhance intellectual property rights protection.
Major Types of Intellectual Property in Shanghai
1. Trademark
A trade mark is a sign that serves the specific and primary purpose of identifying the goods or services of a producer, thus allowing the consumers to distinguish goods or services of one producer from those of another. The sign may be composed of words, devices, letters, numerals, three-dimensional signs (shapes), combinations of colours or any combinations of the above.
2. Patent
Patents in China are granted by the State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO). There are three types of patents: invention patents, utility model patents, and design patents. Invention patents are substantively examined, while utility model patents are subject only to a formal examination. Like other forms of intellectual property in China, patents may be enforced by administrative authorities or through civil or criminal litigation.
3. Copyright
Copyright is a legal right created by the law of a country that grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights for its use and distribution. This is usually only for a limited time. The exclusive rights are not absolute but limited by limitations and exceptions to copyright law, including fair use. A major limitation on copyright is that copyright protects only the original expression of ideas, and not the underlying ideas themselves.
