Declaration of Continued Use/Excusable Nonuse
of Mark in Commerce Under Section 8
(15 U.S.C. § 1058)

TEAS - Version 5.0 : 10/27/2012
You must file a Section 8 declaration, specimen, and fee on a date that falls on or between the fifth (5th) and sixth (6th) anniversaries of the registration (or, for an extra fee of $100.00 per class, you may file within the six-month grace period following the sixth (6th) anniversary date). You must subsequently file a Section 8 declaration, specimen, and fee on a date that falls on or between the ninth (9th) and tenth (10th) anniversaries of the registration, and each successive ten-year period thereafter (or, for an extra fee of $100.00 per class, you may file within the six-month grace period). FAILURE TO FILE A SECTION 8 DECLARATION WILL RESULT IN CANCELLATION OF THE REGISTRATION. Note: Because the time for filing a ten-year Section 8 declaration coincides with the time for filing a Section 9 renewal request, a combined §§ 8 & 9 form exists.


NOTE: You must complete any field preceded by the symbol "*".

WARNING: This form has a session time limit of 60 minutes. Your "session" began as soon as you accessed this initial Form Wizard page. If you exceed the 60-minute time limit, the form will not validate and you must begin the entire process again; you can, however, extend the time limit. You should always try to have all information required to complete the form prior to starting any session.


:      (required only if completing the form for the first time)
WARNING: Be sure you are entering a registration number and NOT a serial number.
     OR

WARNING: You are filing only  a Section 8 affidavit of use or excusable nonuse. If a Section 9 renewal application is also due, it is not included here. If necessary, please see the Combined declaration of use in commerce/application for renewal of registration of mark under Sections 8 & 9. If a Section 9 renewal application is due and is not timely filed, your registration will be cancelled. Please make sure you file all the required forms, and that the owner name identified on the form(s) is correct.
