«TRADEMARK» refers to «Wordmark+ Logo»

Prices include all professional and official fees. If the change of official duties or exchange rates prices may vary.

In USA, if your trademark includes both a wordmark and a logo, in order to have effective protection, we need to file two separate trademark applications, one for the wordmark and another for the logo. For this reason, the price of “WORDMARK PLUS LOGO” is double. In USA, you can file a Trademark Application with no commercial use. However, at the moment of registration, the trademark must be in use, so an additional fee for filing a Specimen of Use will be applied. Also you can apply for the registration based on an international registration. IMPORTANT NOTE: You can only claim priority in your USA trademark application for those classes you filed in your foreign application. If you wish to add classes to your USA trademark application, these additional classes must be filed under an “Actual Use” or “Intent to Use” basis.”
