Overview
How US trademark registration works
Applications are filed with the USPTO, currently through its online Trademark Center filing system.
You file on one of two bases: already using the mark in US commerce, or intending to use it.
Since 2019, applicants domiciled outside the US must be represented by a US-licensed attorney.
A USPTO examining attorney reviews the application; office actions are common and must be answered on time.
After examination, the mark is published for a 30-day opposition window before registration issues.
Benefits
Why founders file their US mark through us
Open each benefit to see what it means for you.
US attorney requirement covered
Foreign-domiciled applicants must use a US-licensed attorney before the USPTO. We work with US counsel so your application is admissible from day one.
Correct filing basis, chosen once
The wrong basis is the most common reason foreign applications stall. We pick the filing basis that matches your actual position.
Office actions answered properly
USPTO office actions are normal — most applications get one. We prepare responses that actually address the examiner's concerns.
Proof-of-use handled
Use-based filings need proof of use; intent-to-use filings need statements later. We keep you on the right track either way.
Documents
Documents you will usually need
Clear, current documents matter more than a long checklist. Names, dates of birth and addresses should match across records.

Process
How we handle your filing
You’ll see each stage, what’s pending and what we need from you — so filings don’t bounce back.
Step 1 of 5
Search and assess
We search the USPTO database for conflicting marks and assess whether your mark is registrable.
Choose the filing basis
Use-based or intent-to-use — the right choice affects cost, timing and proof requirements.
File with US counsel
US counsel files the application with correct classes and descriptions. You review everything first.
Handle office actions
We draft and file responses to any office actions within the USPTO deadlines.
Registration and maintenance
After the opposition window closes, your registration certificate is issued and we diarise maintenance deadlines.

If a founder or investor is outside India
Foreign ownership is possible in many sectors, but it adds document authentication, banking and FEMA work. Set the route before funds move.
Plan before you start
- Check whether your sector permits automatic-route foreign investment
- Confirm the Indian resident director arrangement
- Map ownership, beneficial ownership and pricing
- Allow time for apostilled or consularised documents
Plan for after setup
- Receive funds through permitted banking channels
- Complete RBI/FEMA reporting and keep the bank evidence
- Coordinate tax and ongoing compliance advice early

Usually, yes, if you sell to or target US customers. A US registration is the only thing that lets you enforce your mark in American courts and at US Customs.
It depends on the class and the filing basis you use. USPTO government fees are published per class; our service fee is quoted separately.
Timelines vary with examiner workload and whether office actions arise. We set expectations from current USPTO processing data when we start your filing.
Yes. Intent-to-use is designed exactly for that — you file now, and prove use before the registration issues.
Generally yes — they run on parallel tracks. We can coordinate the US filing so your brand story stays consistent across both.
The Madrid Protocol lets you extend an existing Indian registration to the US. Whether that's better than a direct USPTO filing depends on your situation — we advise on both routes.
