What a Statement of Use Does

If you filed an intent-to-use trademark application, a Statement of Use tells the USPTO that your mark is now in commerce for the listed goods or services. Filing it—with proper specimens—is a key step toward receiving your Certificate of Registration.

This service is for applicants whose mark has been allowed and who are either ready to prove use in commerce or need more time before use begins.

Key Benefits

Advance an allowed intent-to-use application toward registration

Submit specimens formatted to meet USPTO expectations

Review and approve the assembled filing before submission

Choose a Statement of Use or an Extension of Time when you need more runway

Work with a dedicated Account Manager under flat-fee pricing

Why Work With The Trademark Company

Since 2003, The Trademark Company has guided businesses through post-allowance filings with dedicated Account Managers and transparent flat fees—so deadlines and paperwork feel manageable.

Important Note

USPTO acceptance of a Statement of Use or extension is not guaranteed. Specimens must show genuine use in commerce for the goods or services claimed. The Trademark Company is not a law firm, and this service does not create an attorney-client relationship.
