Jan 17, 2015 – New USPTO Trademark Filing Fees
As authorized by the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act, the USPTO amended its regulations to reduce certain trademark filing fees in order to: (1) continue with an appropriate and sustainable funding model; (2) support strategic objectives relating to online trademark filing, electronic file management, and workflow; and (3) improve efficiency for USPTO operations and customers. The reduced trademark filing fees and the TEAS reduced trademark filing fee option went into effect on January 17, 2015. A link to the full text of the final rule changing the fees is available under “Recent Final Rules”.
