Can I submit my trademark application online?

Senior Trademark Attorney

Yes, you can file your trademark application through online systems in all major jurisdictions, including the EUIPO, USPTO, UKIPO, IP Australia, and CIPO. In fact, online filing has become the standard, and most offices lower government fees for online applications compared to paper submissions.

All application sections and ownership details are present in your online application, the same as a paper submission. You will still be required to specify owner details, the mark, the goods and services classes, and pay the filing fee. Many offices also provide tools for searching pre-approved goods and services terminology, which reduces the risk of formal office actions.
