Why it is necessary to register a domain name containing a trademark name
There have been some disturbing domain name registration trends in Vietnam recently. Some parties try to register domain names containing the reputable trademarks of other parties, and then add the word "Vietnam" to the domain name, such as: Sonyvietnam.com.vn, Hondavietnam.vn; Hondavietnam.com.vn, Hiltivietnam.com.vn, Panasonicvietnam.vn, Doosanvietnam.vn, Doosanvietnam.com.vn, etc., after completing the registration of these domain names, make the products appear to be joint ventures or legitimate sales representatives in Vietnam.
This will potentially damage the reputation and goodwill of the trademark right holder and may cause domain name applicants or trademark applicants with genuine intentions to register in Vietnam to spend a lot of time, effort and money on domain names and trademarks. Therefore, in order to mitigate this risk, it is strongly recommended that trademark applicants try to register trademarks "Vietnam.vn" and "Vietnam.com.vn" related to domain names.
In this way, trademark owners can prevent others from malicious use of their trademarks and ensure that customers looking for their products or services on the Internet are routed to their official website. This will help protect their brand and reputation, reduce the risk of future disputes and ensure consumers are not misled.
