    ⚖️ ️Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a Notice of Allowance (NOA)?
    +
    A Notice of Allowance (NOA) is an official notification from the USPTO that your trademark has passed the publication stage and no oppositions were filed. It means your application based on intent to use (Section 1(b)) is one step closer to registration.

    Our Service: We monitor the Trademark Gazette, track your application's progress, and notify you when the NOA is issued. We then guide you through the next step: filing your Statement of Use.
    What is a Statement of Use (SOU)?
    +
    A Statement of Use (SOU) is a required document that proves you’re now using your trademark in commerce. The USPTO needs to see real use before it will register your mark.

    Our Service: We prepare and file your SOU with all required evidence (specimen, dates, declarations) to avoid rejection or delay.
    How long do I have to file a Statement of Use?
    +
    You must file your SOU within six months of the NOA date. If you're not ready, you can request a six-month extension — and may request up to five extensions total (30 months max).

    Our Service: We help you decide whether to file an SOU or request an extension — and we handle all filings on your behalf.
    What kind of proof (specimen) do I need?
    +
    The specimen must show the trademark used in connection with the actual sale or transport of your goods/services. Acceptable examples include product labels, website screenshots showing shopping cart functionality, packaging, service menus, etc.

    Our Service: We review your materials, advise on specimen eligibility, and submit acceptable evidence that meets USPTO standards.
    What happens if I don’t file the SOU or an extension?
    +
    Your application will be considered abandoned, and you’ll lose your filing date and progress. You’d have to start the trademark process over.

    Our Service: We track your NOA deadline and file on time to protect your rights — no stress, no missed deadlines.
    Can I file multiple SOUs for different goods/services?
    +
    Yes — if your trademark covers multiple classes or product types, you can file a Statement of Use for only the items currently in use and request to divide the application.

    Our Service: We help you split or narrow the application properly to match your business use while keeping unused goods protected.
    Is a Statement of Use required for all trademarks?
    +
    Only for Intent-to-Use (1(b)) applications. If your original filing was based on actual use (1(a)), no SOU is required — but specimens must still be submitted during the application.

    Our Service: We advise you on your filing basis, and ensure all requirements are met based on your specific case.
    What are the USPTO fees?
    +
    The USPTO charges:

    • $150 per class for filing a Statement of Use
    • $150 per class for each extension request

    In case of an office action, there may be additional requirements. You can contact our expert to get more clarification.

    Our Service: We add no hidden fees — and we’ll prepare, file, and manage your SOU or extension quickly and accurately.
    I received a Notice of Allowance. What should I do now?
    +
    Congrats — your trademark is allowed! Now it’s time to prove you’re using it or request more time.

    Our Service: Let us handle the next step. We offer full-service SOU and extension filing, so you can focus on growing your brand while we get you to registration.
