Dear Colleagues:
We are writing to inform you that due to China National Day Holidays (October 1 - October 7, 2016), the State Intellectual Property Office and the State Administration for Industry and Commerce Trademark Office of P.R. China will be closed during the said period. All deadlines falling during this period will be automatically extended to October 8, 2016 (Sat.), the first working day following the extended holidays. Furthermore, October 8 (Sat.) & 9 (Sun.) will be working days in China to accommodate the long holidays. The trademark-related deadlines falling on October 8 (Sat.) & 9 (Sun.) CANNOT be extended, though the patent-related deadlines can.
Therefore, we would appreciate if all urgent China cases and instructions are received no later than September 28, 2016 given that Chinese translations are required in obtaining effective filing dates.
Hopefully, this schedule will not cause you any inconvenience. Thank you for the cooperation.
Yours faithfully,
TSAI, LEE & CHEN
