"2008" is a hot trademark application

At the beginning of 2008, some trademark offices of Yangzhou received consulting calls "Anybody has registered 2008?"

It is known that 2008 is a hot trademark application now. 59 enterprises and individuals are competing for it, covering the scope of washing & cosmetics, food and clothes.

Since trademark application complies with the principle of "first file, first get for the same type trademark", the latter applicants all turn to similar ones, such as "20086", "2008888", "Nanjing 2008", etc..

However, the insider reminded the citizens having interest in the application of paying attention to the stipulation that the individual applicant shall submit ID card and business license and the scope of trademark application shall be in compliance with the business scope defined in the business license or related records, which aims to restrain from empty-handed speculation.
