After the first certificate is granted for a collector or a system, the rest of certificates granted for collectors or for systems are all considered subtypes. • In a case where a manufacturer already has a certified collector and wishes to certify a new family of collectors and this new family will have many different trademarks, there are two options: • All trademarks are listed into one certificate. It is considered as a subtype and the fee to be paid is the “subtype fee” • Each trademark has its own certificate. Each certificate will have a different number and each trademark is considered as a subtype. The fee for each certificate is the “subtype fee”
