How will I know if my §9 renewal has been accepted?

Section 9 Renewal Applications are reviewed by trademark specialists in the Post-Registration Division. If the §9 Renewal Application is accepted, the USPTO will issue a notice granting the renewal. If the §9 Renewal is refused, the USPTO will send an Office Action stating the reasons for refusal and any remedies available.

You can also view the status of your registration and view and download documents contained in the USPTO’s electronic records using our Trademark Status and Document Retrieval (TSDR) database.  To retrieve the records relating to your trademark, enter your application serial number or registration number and click the “Documents” button.  You can find your application serial number and your registration number on your registration certificate.
