Trademark applications in the U.S. are handled centrally by the USPTO. The USPTO examines, publishes, and registers trademarks under the federal system — granting protection across all 50 states and U.S. territories. The process includes formal and substantive examination, followed by publication, opposition period, and (if no valid opposition) registration. The system accepts various filing bases (use in commerce, intent to use, foreign/granted registrations) under U.S. trademark law.
Nationwide Protection: Common law rights only protect you where you use the mark; federal registration covers the entire U.S..
Legal Presumption of Ownership: Establishes a legal presumption that you own the mark, shifting the burden of proof in disputes.
Public Notice & Deterrence: Puts the public on notice through the USPTO database, discouraging others from using similar marks and potentially preventing costly legal battles.
Use of ® Symbol: Allows you to use the ® symbol, signaling to the public that your mark is federally registered.
The U.S. trademark registration system follows a structured sequence of reviews, publications, and legal checks. These steps ensure that trademarks meet all statutory requirements and remain protected over time.
Application submitted online via USPTO’s Trademark Center, including trademark representation, applicant info, and list of goods/services (per NICE classification equivalent for U.S.).
USPTO conducts a formal examination and then a substantive examination to ensure the mark is registrable (not generic, confusingly similar to existing marks, or descriptive).
If approved, the mark is published in the official online “Trademark Official Gazette (TMOG)” to allow third parties to oppose.
After publication, there is a 30-day opposition window for third parties to challenge registration.
If no opposition (or after successful resolution), and if goods/services are already in use (or after submitting a “Statement of Use” for intent-to-use filings), USPTO issues the Registration Certificate.
Once registered, the U.S. federal trademark remains valid indefinitely — 10-year renewal cycles, provided that required maintenance filings (Declaration of Use, renewal) are timely submitted.
