From Kimono, through #KimOhNo, to Skims: A branding nightmare for Kim Kardashian
#KimOhNo became a symbol of the backlash to Kim Kardashian’s attempt to register a trademark for her new line of shape wear, Kimono.
The fee structure in China is based on the number of goods or services (items) within a class rather than the number of classes themselves. The exact cost will depend on the number of items you include in your trademark application within the chosen class.
For example, if you have two classes with one item each, the cost would be:
Class 1 (1 item): ¥300
Class 2 (1 item): ¥300
Total cost for two classes: ¥300 + ¥300 = ¥600 (approximately $94)
Note that the price for an additional trademark class is determined by the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) and is subject to change.
