To keep your trademark registration alive, the registration owner must file required maintenance documents at regular intervals. Failure to file the required maintenance documents during the specified time periods will result in cancellation of your trademark registration. Owners of trademark registrations must file a Declaration of Use and/or Excusable Nonuse under Section 8 of the Trademark Act between the fifth and sixth years after the registration date. In addition, a Combined Declaration of Use and/or Excusable Nonuse under Sections 8 & 9 must be filed every ten years after the registration date. Let us handle the complicated part for you.

Unlike copyrights and patents, trademarks can last forever under certain circumstances. Once properly registered, trademarks generally need to be renewed by filing a Declaration of Continued Use between the 5th and 6th anniversary date of the filing and again between the ninth and tenth year. After that, renewal is every ten years. Trademark Engine provides notice of the applicable deadlines and allows filing of the necessary paperwork through its personalized portal with just a few clicks of the mouse or with some minor updated information.
