Notice
regarding Section 508 of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998:
Section 508 of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 requires that all
U.S. Federal Agencies make their web sites fully accessible to
individuals with disabilities. See 29 U.S.C. §794d. While the
Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) forms do comply with
Section 508, the PDF preview of the TEAS forms currently do not meet
all standards for web accessibility. If you cannot access a TEAS form
preview or have any questions about this notice, please contact the
Trademark Assistance Center (TAC) at 1-800-786-9199 (select
option#1), Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., ET.

Combined
Declaration of Use and Incontestability Under Sections 8 and
15
|
(15
U.S.C. §§ 1058 & 1065)
TEAS - Version
7.6
|
|
You
may file a Combined Declaration of Use &
Incontestability under Sections 8 & 15 only if you have
continuously used a mark registered on the Principal
(not Supplemental)
Register in commerce for five (5) consecutive years after
the date of registration. You must file the Combined
Declaration, specimen, and fee on a date that falls on or
between the fifth (5th) and sixth (6th) anniversaries of the
registration (or, for an extra fee of $100.00 per class, you
may file within the six-month grace period following the
sixth anniversary date). If you have NOT continuously used
the mark in commerce for five (5) consecutive years, you
must still file
a Section 8 Declaration. You must subsequently file a
Section 8 declaration, specimen, and fee on a date that
falls on or between the ninth (9th) and tenth (10th)
anniversaries of the registration, and each successive
ten-year period thereafter (or, for an extra fee of $100.00
per class, you may file within the six-month grace period).
FAILURE TO FILE THE SECTION 8 DECLARATION WILL RESULT IN
CANCELLATION OF THE REGISTRATION. Note:
Because the time for filing a ten-year Section 8 declaration
coincides with the time for filing a Section 9 renewal
application, a combined
Sections 8 & 9 form exists.

|
There

|
|
There

any point in the application and/or registration process
will become public record, including your name, phone
number, email address, and street address. By filing this

HAVE NO RIGHT TO CONFIDENTIALITY in
the information disclosed. The public will be able to view
this information in the USPTO's on-line databases and
