U.S. PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE ("USPTO") COURTESY REMINDER
OF REQUIRED TRADEMARK REGISTRATION MAINTENANCE FILING UNDER SECTION 71 |
WARNING: In addition to filing renewals of your international registration with the International Bureau ("IB") of the World Intellectual Property Organization ("WIPO") as required under the
Madrid Protocol, you must also file the required document below during the specified statutory time period or your registered extension of protection to the United States (U.S. Registration) will be
CANCELLED. |
The above-identified registration registered in the United States on Nov 23, 2010. Therefore, the holder/owner of the
registration must file a Declaration of Use and/or Excusable Nonuse under §71 of the Trademark Act anytime between now and Nov 23, 2016. For an additional fee, the holder/owner may file the
declaration within the six-month grace period that ends on May 23, 2017. See 15 U.S.C. §1141k. The current fee for filing a declaration under §71 is $100 per class, and the
additional fee for filing during the six-month grace period is $100 per class. 37 C.F.R. §7.6. |
If the registration meets the requirements of §15 of the Trademark Act, the holder/owner may additionally file an optional Declaration
of Incontestability under §15. See 15 U.S.C. §1065. The current fee for filing a declaration under §15 is $200 per class. 37 C.F.R. §2.6. |
To expedite processing, the holder/owner is encouraged to file through the USPTO's official website using the Trademark Electronic
Application System ("TEAS"). Official forms for filing Declarations of Use and/or Excusable Nonuse under §71 and Combined Declarations of Use and Incontestability under §§71 and 15 are
available through TEAS at http://www.gov.uspto.report/trademarks/teas/reg_maintain.jsp. |
Assignments of extensions of protection to the United States must first be recorded at the IB. The IB will notify the USPTO of
any changes in name or ownership recorded in the International Register. The USPTO will record only those assignments (or other documents affecting title) that have been recorded in the
International Register. TMEP §§501.07, 1904.06. A new holder/owner can check the TSDR database at http://tsdr.gov.uspto.report/ to determine
whether the trademark database has been updated to reflect a change in ownership that has been recorded with the IB. For information on changes in ownership of international registrations,
please see http://www.wipo.int/madrid/en/filing/change_ownership.html. For information on changes of
name of the holder/owner, please see http://www.wipo.int/madrid/en/filing/change_holder.html. |
This reminder notice is being sent only as a courtesy to those trademark holders/owners who have authorized e-mail communication and
maintain a current e-mail address with the USPTO. Failure by the USPTO to send a reminder or non-receipt of a reminder does not excuse a trademark holder/owner from meeting the statutory
obligations for maintaining a U.S. trademark registration. If a U.S. registration is cancelled and/or expired due to the failure to timely file required maintenance documents, it cannot be
reinstated or revived. |
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MAINTAINING A U.S. TRADEMARK REGISTRATION |
EXTENDING PROTECTION OF AN INTERNATIONAL REGISTRATION |
RENEWAL OF INTERNATIONAL REGISTRATION |
The international registration remains in force for 10 years, with the possibility of renewal. Madrid Protocol, Article 6(1).
Failure to renew the international registration with the IB will result in the expiration of the U.S. registration even if the Section 71 declaration of use has been
accepted. |
Any international registration may be renewed for a period of ten years from the expiry of the preceding period, by the mere payment of
the required fee to the IB. Madrid Protocol, Article 7(1). The deadlines for renewing the international registration are calculated from the international registration date. If the
international registration is not renewed, the corresponding U.S. registration will cease to be valid as of the date of the expiration of the international registration. 15 U.S.C. §1141j(b).
Renewal applications must be filed with the IB in accordance with Article 7 of the Madrid Protocol, 37 C.F.R. §7.41(a). The USPTO will not process or forward any requests to renew an
international registration or extension of protection to the United States if mistakenly submitted to the USPTO. 37 C.F.R. §7.41(b). |
Beware of Unofficial Trademark Solicitations: Please be aware that private companies not associated with the USPTO often
use trademark registration information from the USPTO's database to mail or e-mail trademark-related solicitations. This is the only official reminder that you will receive from the USPTO about
your upcoming required maintenance filing. For additional information about these private solicitations, please visit the USPTO website at http://www.gov.uspto.report/trademarks/solicitation_warnings.jsp. |
In order to be eligible for future e-mail reminders of maintenance filings, please remember to authorize e-mail communication when
filing your maintenance documents through TEAS and ensure that you maintain a current e-mail address with the USPTO. |
