What is a certification mark?

A: A certification trademark is a sign used to certify the characteristics, quality, precision, origin or other matters of another person's goods or services, e.g., the Taiwan fine product sign, UL electrical appliances safety sign, ST toy safety sign, and 100% wool sign, which are familiar to the average Taiwanese consumers. An applicant of a certification mark must be a juristic person, group or government agency that is capable of certifying an entity's goods or services. The use of a certification mark shall mean that the right holder of a certification mark, in order to certify the characteristics, quality, precision, origin or other matters of another person's goods or services, agrees to the person for displaying the certification mark on articles or documents in connection with the goods or services. (§80;§81, Trademark Act)
