After the preverification, if no match is found, it is possible to apply for trademark registration.
The application is assigned a unique number, after which it enters the Examining Division, and information about the application published in the official gazette, which is published by the Department.The examination is to test for compliance with the requirements of the trademark law of Hong Kong.
Once the data has been published, any person may bring their case against the registration of the trademark.
