Renewal Filings

A trademark registration isn’t “set it and forget it.” To keep your rights active, the USPTO requires periodic maintenance filings—including Section 8 declarations of use and, when due, Section 9 renewals. We help you renew on time with correct class-by-class evidence and clean goods/services alignment.

Renewals fail for avoidable reasons

The most common issues are bad specimens, claiming goods/services you’re no longer using, and missed deadlines. A clean renewal filing helps keep your registration active and enforceable.

WORKFLOW

How renewal filing works

A simple workflow built around deadlines and evidence.

Confirm what’s due

We confirm whether you need Section 8, Section 9, or both based on your registration and timing.

Collect specimens

We help you choose current specimens for each class that show proper use in commerce.

File and track

We file via TEAS and provide confirmation so your trademark stays active and enforceable.

PROOF OF USE

Renewal specimens: what usually works

Specimens should show current trademark use for the goods/services you’re keeping. The correct evidence depends on your classes.

For goods (products)

Product packaging with the mark
Labels/tags attached to goods
Product photos showing the mark on the goods
Online store pages with the mark + purchasing context (when appropriate)

Avoid: mockups, renderings, outdated listings, “coming soon” pages.

For services

Website pages showing the mark + the services offered
Marketing materials tied to the services
Screenshots with clear service descriptions and the mark

The specimen should connect the mark to the services—not just display a logo.

COMMON QUESTIONS

FAQ: Trademark renewals

Do I always need both Section 8 and Section 9?

Not always. Timing matters. Depending on where your registration is in its lifecycle, you may need Section 8 only, or Section 8 and Section 9 together. We confirm based on your registration record.

Can I keep goods/services I no longer sell?

Renewal filings should reflect current use. Keeping items you’re not using can create risk. If you’ve narrowed your business, it may be safer to clean up scope.

What specimen is best for an online business?

It depends on whether you sell goods or services. For goods, a store page with purchasing context can help. For services, a page describing the services with the mark shown clearly is common.

Is there a grace period for renewals?

Many filings include a grace period with additional fees, but relying on it increases risk. Deadline-safe planning is better.

Can you handle multiple trademarks at once?

Yes. If you have multiple registrations, we can help you organize renewals and build a maintenance roadmap so deadlines don’t collide.
