What are CNIPA official notices?
After filing, CNIPA communicates through official notices in Chinese. Ginbing posts the Chinese original and an English translation to your order when each official notice is received.

How Ginbing handles notices
Ginbing reads each CNIPA notice, posts the original and an English translation to your order, and you can message us about any of it.
The first notice is the filing receipt, which confirms CNIPA accepted the application and assigned an application number. The examination, publication, and registration stages are covered in after you file.
Notices that need a decision
Some notices carry deadlines or need a decision, such as a correction request, a refusal, or a third-party opposition during publication. Ginbing translates and flags these so you can see the issue in time.
Watch for look-alike notices
