在欧盟,既有各成员国国内的商标法律制度,又有欧盟的跨国商标法律制度即共同体商标条例,并设有将这两种商标法律制度协调运行的机制。该机制的核心主要有三个方面:一是优先注册权制度,即在一成员国有效的商标,或者同时又是共同体商标,权利人可以享有将同一商标在相同商品或服务上优先注册共同体商标的权利,或者优先注册其他成员国国内商标的权利;二是转换申请制度,即共同体商标的申请人或所有人在其申请失败或其商标失效时请求将该申请或商标转换成国内商标申请的情况;三是共同体商标特有的诉讼管辖和法律适用制度。欧盟所建立的这种复式商标法律制度及其协调机制,对于“一国两制”下的中国大陆、香港、澳门和台湾四法域商标法律制度的协调具有重要的借鉴作用。
In the EU, there are not only the legal system of trademark in each member country, but also the EU’s transnational trademark legal system, that is, the Community Trademark Ordinance, and a mechanism for the coordinated operation of these two trademark legal systems. The core of the mechanism mainly has three aspects: First, the priority registration system, that is, a member of the effective trademark, or at the same time is a Community trademark, the right holder may enjoy the same trademark in the same goods or services registered priority CT Rights or preferential registration of the domestic trademark of another Member State; and second, the conversion application system where the applicant or proprietor of a CTM requests that the application or trademark be converted into a domestic trademark application when his application fails or his trademark expires Third, the CTM’s unique lawsuit jurisdiction and applicable law system. The legal system and coordination mechanism established by the EU on such a multi-trademark system have an important reference for the coordination of the trademark legal systems in the four jurisdictions of Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan under the principle of “one country, two systems.”
