The USPTO may assign design search codes and/or pseudo marks, as appropriate, to new applications to assist in searching the USPTO database for conflicting marks. They have no legal
significance and will not appear on the registration certificate.
DESIGN SEARCH CODES are numerical codes assigned to figurative, non-textual elements found in marks. For example, if your mark contains the design of a flower, design search code 05.05 would be
assigned to your application. Design search codes are described on Internet Web page http://www.gov.uspto.report/tmdb/dscm/index.html.
A PSEUDO MARK may be assigned to marks that include words, numbers, compound words, symbols, or acronyms that can have alternative spellings or meanings. For example, if the mark comprises the
words 'YOU ARE' surrounded by a design of a box, the pseudo mark field in the USPTO database would display the mark as 'YOU ARE SQUARE'. A mark filed as 'URGR8' would receive a pseudo mark of
'YOU ARE GREAT'.
You are not required to respond to this notice. However, if you would like to suggest additions or changes to the design search codes or pseudo mark assigned to your mark, please send an email
to TMDesignCodeComments@USPTO.GOV or call 1-800-786-9199 to speak to a Customer Service representative. No fee is necessary. (Please include the serial number of your application
on ALL correspondence with the USPTO.) The USPTO will review your request and update the record if appropriate.
The USPTO will not send any further response to your e-mail. Check TESS in approximately two weeks to see if the requested changes have been entered. Requests deemed unnecessary or
inappropriate will not be entered.
