Can U.S. individuals apply to register China trademarks?

Yes, U.S. individuals may apply to register China trademarks but must comply with special provisions for foreign applicants under China’s Trademark Law. U.S. individuals should entrust trademark applications to legally established trademark agencies. However, those with permanent residence in China may apply directly.
