加拿大商在展省官

Renew Your Canadian Trademark Registrations Now and Save

本文由毅，加拿大Blaney McMurtry LLP (www.blaney.com) 2019年5月4日授分享於金商事所官

2019年6月17日，期待已久的加拿大《商法》修法始施。本次修法覆多域，包括展以及必商品跟服目按照尼斯分系（共45）分。於展，上展官目前的350加元（多少商品和服目）上升到第一400加元，之後每增加一125加元。因此新的官框架大影覆多的加拿大商。

On June 17, 2019, Canada’s much anticipated amendments to the Trademarks Act will come into force. These changes extend to various areas, including the renewal of registrations and the requirement for goods and services be classified according to the Nice classification system that contains 45 classes of goods and services. There will be an increase of government renewal fees from the current fee of CAD$350 (if renewal is requested online) regardless of the number of classes of goods and services. Under the new regime, the renewal fee for a trademark registration will be CAD$400 for the first class of goods/services and CAD$125 for each additional class. Registrations covering multiple classes will therefore be seriously impacted by the new fee structure.

加拿大目前允任何前存在的商在2019年6月17日之前展。^*因此，加拿大商人可以通在2019年6月17日前完成展官。展可以上申，展可以子件形式，可在上申一工作日得。

Canada’s current trademark regime allows any existing trademark registrations to be renewed prior to June 17, 2019.* Owners of Canadian registered trademarks therefore can potentially reduce government renewal fees if renewals are requested and processed before June 17, 2019. Renewals can be requested online and certificates of renewal may be issued electronically within one business day upon receipt of an online renewal request.

*2019年6月17日後，展只能在到期前的6月或者到期後的六月求。 After June 17, 2019, a renewal request can only be made between 6 months before and 6 months after the registration expiry.
