Lower-Cost Trademark Bulk Data from U.S. Patent and Trademark Office

The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) announces Trademark bulk data at lower cost. Effective January 1, 2008, the USPTO changed its distribution model for Trademark bulk data by eliminating all charges for downloadable daily files and reducing the price of retrospective data distributed on optical disc.

The following Trademark data files are available for download at no cost as of January 1, 2008:

• Trademark Daily/XML files:
• Trademark Daily Applications file
  (containing text data of applications filed, published for opposition, registrations issued, registrations renewed, registrations cancelled, registrations amended or corrected, registrations issued new certificates)
• Trademark Daily Assignments file
  (containing text data of ownership transfers)
• Trademark Daily TTAB file
  (containing text data of Trademark Trial and Appeals Board adversary proceedings)


• Trademark Daily Application Image 24 Hour Box
  (containing images processed through the Trademark Image Capture and Retrieval System (TICRS) in a 24-hour Period, in JPEG (black and white, grey-scale, or color)) and TIFF (black and white) formats)

In order to improve access to these downloadable data files, USPTO has implemented a new account management and file retrieval system. New customers are able to establish their own accounts online beginning January 1. The online ordering system can be found at https://eipweb.uspto.gov/SOMS

The USPTO also offers optical discs containing Trademark Retrospective/XML files (Applications, Assignments, and TTAB), which are updated annually. These discs are available at a substantially lower cost; the ordering process for all optical discs is described in the products and services catalog at http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/ac/ido/oeip/catalog/index.html.
