Trademark registration is a crucial step in protecting your brand identity and intellectual property. However, navigating the trademark application process can sometimes feel overwhelming. At Dealintax, we aim to simplify this process by explaining the various trademark application statuses and what they mean for your registration journey.
What is Trademark Application Status?
Trademark application status refers to the current stage of your trademark registration process. It is essential to monitor your application’s status regularly to ensure smooth progression and address any issues promptly.
Common Trademark Application Statuses
1. New Application:
This indicates that your trademark application has been submitted and is awaiting examination by the Trademark Office.
2. Formalities Check Pass:
Your application has cleared the basic formalities, and the Trademark Office has accepted it for further examination.
3. Exam Report Issued:
The Trademark Examiner has reviewed your application and issued a report. The report may either approve the application or raise objections.
4. Objected:
If there are issues with your application, such as similarity to an existing trademark, it may be marked as “Objected.” You will need to respond to the objections within the stipulated timeframe.
5. Accepted & Advertised:
Once objections are resolved, your application is accepted and advertised in the Trademark Journal for public scrutiny.
6. Opposed:
During the advertisement period, third parties can file an opposition if they believe your trademark infringes on their rights.
7. Registered:
Congratulations! Your trademark is now officially registered, and you receive the Trademark Registration Certificate.
8. Abandoned:
Failure to respond to objections or opposition within the given time can result in the abandonment of your application.
