小編之前有教過大家如何查詢公司登記資料【參考文章：【越南大小事】越南公司查詢及法院判決查詢】也就教過大家怎麼查詢越南商標【參考文章：【越南商標】越南智慧財產局網站商標查詢】
今天要來討論如果公司名稱或商標被搶先使用，在越南法上怎麼處理？
小編先跟大家解釋，公司名稱是用來指示營業主體本身，相當於自然人的姓名，而商標則是用來指示不同營業主體所產銷或提供的商品/服務，二者本分屬不同的法律規範範疇，
在越南的法規上這兩個登記分屬不同的主管機關(在台灣也是)
且參照越南智慧財產權法(50/2005/QH11)第129條如果用了人家已經註冊的商標或近似導致他人混淆都算是侵害商標權
Article 129. Acts of infringement of rights to marks, trade names and geographical indications
The following acts, if performed without the permission of mark owners, shall be deemed to be infringements of the right to a mark:
(a) Using signs identical with protected marks for goods or services identical with goods or services on the list registered together with such mark;
(b) Using signs identical with protected marks for goods or services similar or related to those goods or services on the list registered together with such mark, if such use is likely to cause confusion as to the origin of the goods or services;
(c) Using signs similar to protected marks for goods or services identical with, similar to or related to goods or services on the list registered together with such mark, if such use is likely to cause confusion as to the origin of the goods or services;
(d) Using signs identical with, or similar to, well known marks, or signs in the form of translations or transcriptions of well known marks for any goods or services, including those not identical with, dissimilar or unrelated to goods or services on the lists of those bearing well known marks, if such use is likely to cause confusion as to the origin of the goods or services or misleading impressions as to the relationship between users of such signs and well known mark owners.
另外，公司登記議定書(01/2021/ND-CP)第19條第1向也有規定不可以使用他人的商標登記註冊公司名稱。
Article 19. Actions against enterprises’ names infringing upon industrial property rights
1. It is prohibited to use a protected trade name, brand name, or geographical indication of an entity as part of an enterprise’s proper name unless it is accepted by the owner of such protected trade name or brand name. Before registering a name, the enterprise or its founder may check the database of industrial property authorities for registered brand names and geographical indications
而且同條法規也有規定若商標權人有認定公司名稱侵害到商標權可以要求他方更名。當然如果是公司先註冊名稱，後來他人惡意註冊商標，也可以要求他方補正，實際上還要依個案來判斷。
所以最重要的結論是在申請公司名稱的時候也應該要同時申請商標權
