FAQs
Can I file before use?
Yes, you can file on “proposed to be used.” Actual use evidence helps during examination and enforcement—keep early invoices and screenshots.
When can I use the ® symbol?
After the mark is registered and you receive the certificate. Before that, you may use ™ to indicate a claim.
Is one class enough?
File in all classes that cover your present and near-future offerings. Under-filing risks gaps in protection.
How long does protection last?
10 years from filing/registration (as applicable) and renewable indefinitely every 10 years.
