Overview

Understanding Trademark Renewal

A trademark is the rare asset that can last forever — provided it is renewed. Registration runs for ten years and is renewable indefinitely in ten-year blocks by filing Form TM-R. The renewal application can be filed within six months before expiry, or up to six months after expiry with a surcharge; miss that, and the mark is liable to removal. We manage renewals individually and at portfolio scale — tracking expiry dates, filing TM-R on time, handling surcharge filings and obtaining the renewal certificate — so a calendar slip never costs you a brand you’ve spent years building.

Common Pitfalls

Costly errors we routinely help clients fix — or better, avoid altogether.

Forgetting Expiry

Without tracking, marks lapse and become vulnerable to removal and third-party filings.

Relying on Restoration

Restoration is a costlier fallback, not a substitute for timely renewal.

Outdated Owner Details

Stale address-for-service can mean missing the Registry’s renewal notice.
