Sec. 92.73  Services in connection with trademark registrations.

    (a) Authority and responsibility. Acknowledgments and oaths required 
in connection with applications for registration of trademarks may be 
made, in a foreign country, before any diplomatic or consular officer of 
the United States or before any official authorized to administer oaths 
in the foreign country whose authority must be proved by a certificate 
of a diplomatic or consular officer of the United States (15 U.S.C. 
1061). The responsibility of officers of the Foreign Service in this 
connection is the same as that where notarial services in connection 
with patent applications are involved (see Sec. 92.72(a)). (See Sec. 
92.72(c) regarding the authentication of the authority of a foreign 
official who performs a notarial service in connection with a patent 
application.)
    (b) Fees. The fee for administering an oath, taking an 
acknowledgment, or supplying an authentication, in connection with an 
application for registration of a trademark, or with the assignment or 
transfer of rights thereunder, is as prescribed in item 49 of the Tariff 
of Fees, Foreign Service of the United States of America (Sec. 22.1 of 
this chapter).
