What should be considered when discontinue a trademark application? It is crucial to understand the potential legal and #business implications. Discontinuing a #trademark_application can have several potential risks, particularly in the context of #Vietnam's IP framework. One of the primary risks is the loss of the priority date associated with the original application. This date is crucial as it establishes the precedence of the trademark claim, and losing it could mean that other entities might file for a similar trademark in the interim, leading to complications in future #registration efforts. Additionally, there is the risk of infringement; if the mark is used without registration, it may infringe upon a prior conflicting mark, which could lead to legal challenges from the original trademark owner. In #Vietnam, trademark infringement can be addressed through #administrative, #civil, or #criminal proceedings, and the lack of a formal application increases the vulnerability to such actions. The absence of a #registered_trademark weakens the legal stance in any potential disputes, possibly leading to increased legal costs and a more challenging #enforcement of the #trademark_rights. If the mark continues to be used without registration, it may be more challenging to enforce against third-party use, which could dilute the brand's distinctiveness and value. On market's perception, as the lack of a registered #trademark might affect the brand's credibility and perceived legitimacy. In case of a legal dispute, not having a registered trademark could result in a weaker position and increased legal costs. Therefore, #businesses must weigh these factors carefully and seek professional advice to navigate the complexities of #trademark_law and make informed decisions that align with their strategic brand management and #IPRs_protection.   To discontinue a #trademark_application in Vietnam, two steps involved: (1) submit a request to withdraw the trademark application; and (2) process the withdrawal request. The IPO will review the request and ensure that it complies with the legal requirements. The withdrawal of a trademark application may have legal implications, such as the loss of priority rights associated with the application date. It is advisable to consult with a #legal_professional specializing in IP law to understand the full consequences of discontinuing a trademark application. For detailed procedures and requirements, it is recommended to refer to the guidelines provided by IPO or #local_law_firm experienced in trademark matters. In summary, discontinuing a trademark application in Vietnam should be a carefully considered decision. It is advisable for businesses to consult with legal professionals specializing in IP to navigate these risks effectively.
