How It Works.

1. 1

   Free Trademark Check

   Reviewed by an attorney

   Before investing in a filing, it helps to know your brand is clear. Tell us your trademark and where you sell, and one of our attorneys checks it against the official registers, including the USPTO Trademark Search, EUIPO TMview, and WIPO Global Brand Database for identical and similar trademarks that could block your application. You receive a clear availability assessment by email, with any potential conflicts highlighted.

   What's included:

   • Identifies identical and phonetically similar trademarks
   • Highlights conflicting Nice classes and goods/services
   • Your result arrives by email, with clear next steps

   Choose Your Countries and Service

   5–10 minutes

   Select the countries where you want to protect your brand. Whether it is one United States filing or a plan covering the European Union, the United Kingdom, India, China, and beyond, we register trademarks wherever you trade. Each country has its own trademark office, fees, and requirements. Our platform adapts to your selection and shows the price before you order. Single-country and multi-country pricing is on the pricing page, and a 5% bank fee applies to government fees.

   What's included:

   • Trademark filing in the countries and regions where you trade
   • Clear pricing: professional fees, government fees, and the bank fee (5%) on separate lines
   • Guided recommendations based on your business and where you sell

   Complete the Online Questionnaire

   10–15 minutes

   Fill out our guided online questionnaire with details about your brand, your goods and services, and the owner. The form adapts to the country you selected. For example, United States filings ask about the filing basis (use in commerce or intent to use), while European Union filings ask about language preferences. We collect exactly what's needed, nothing more. Learn about specimen requirements if you're filing based on use in commerce.

   What's included:

   • Forms tailored to each country's requirements
   • Upload your logo or design mark directly in the form
   • Class Assist matches your industry and product terms to the right Nice classes
   • Save progress and return anytime. Your data is securely stored

   We File Your Application

   United States filings in 5 to 7 business days

   A trademark attorney reviews your submission for completeness, accuracy, and the strongest class strategy. We pick the right Nice classification, prepare the application in the format the relevant trademark office requires (USPTO, EUIPO, UKIPO, CNIPA, etc.), and file it on your behalf. You receive a confirmation email with your application/serial number and filing receipt. Track current USPTO processing times.

   What's included:

   • Application drafted to minimize examiner objections
   • Filing receipt and serial/application number delivered to your dashboard
   • For United States filings: includes handling of non-substantive (formality) office actions

   Track Progress From Your Dashboard

   Ongoing, 3 to 24 months depending on the country

   Once filed, your application enters the examination phase at the relevant trademark office. Timelines vary significantly: United States applications typically take 8–12 months, European Union trademarks 4–6 months, and some countries, such as India or Canada, can take 12–30 months. Throughout this period, you can track every status change in real time through your personal client dashboard.

   What's included:

   • Real-time status updates at every prosecution stage
   • Automatic email notifications for critical events (office actions, publication, registration)
   • Full prosecution history and document archive accessible anytime
   • Deadline tracking with advance reminders for required actions
   • Portfolio view for managing multiple trademarks across countries

   Registration and Ongoing Protection

   Continuous. Your trademark lasts as long as you maintain it

   Once your trademark is registered, the work doesn't stop. Trademark registrations must be maintained through periodic renewals (typically every 10 years), and in the United States, you must also file declarations of continued use (Section 8/Section 71). We help you stay on top of every deadline with automated reminders and optional monitoring and enforcement services. See Country Guides for renewal timelines by country.

   What's included:

   • Renewal reminders sent well in advance of deadlines
   • U.S. Declaration of Use (Section 8 and Section 71) for United States trademarks
   • Optional trademark monitoring to detect infringing applications
   • Cease and desist letter service to enforce your rights
   • Assignment and transfer support if your brand changes hands
