IP Insights. Use of trademarks outside the EU

In today’s edition of IP Insights, we explore the specifics of using trademarks outside the EU. We begin with the United States, where maintaining registration requires additional actions. The material was prepared by Krzysztof Wasilewski.

From the latest edition, you will learn:

• What steps need to be taken to maintain the validity of a trademark registration in the USA?
• Why is regular confirmation of trademark usage crucial for maintaining registration?
• How much is required to be paid for the removal of unused goods or services from a trademark registration, and what are the consequences if the fee is not settled?
• What are the deadlines for submitting a declaration of trademark usage in federal and international registrations?

We invite you to take a look at the material!
