China granted registration approval for the three Ivanka Trump Marks LLC trademarks on June 7, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) found in a review of trademark database records on Wednesday.

Ivanka Trump's business was granted preliminary approval for three trademarks last year the same day she had dinner with President Xi Jinping at Mar-a-Lago.

Abigail Klem, president of Ivanka Trump's company, said it has followed proper business protocol. »
