Trademark Registration China - China is a member of the Madrid Agreement and the Madrid Protocol. Legal basis is the Trademark Act, in force since August 23rd, 1982, last amended December 1st, 2001. Trademark protection is obtained by registration. However, the existing trademark law protects unregistered trademarks if the mark has been used and enjoys a certain reputation or the mark is recognized as a well-known mark in China. China follows the first-to-file system.
