							Welcome

							application.

							This
							new method for filing initial trademark and copyright
							recordation applications will greatly decrease the amount of
							time and paperwork normally required, thus providing more
							timely enforcement of your intellectual property rights. (*
							Please note: An electronic application for trademark and
							copyright "renewals" and "tradename"
							recordations is not yet available. For additional information,
							please review the “Renewals” and “Tradename”
							sections at the bottom of this page.) 
							
							The
							filing of this electronic application will begin the
							administrative recordation process with CBP. A separate
							application is required for each recordation sought.
							Applications will be processed in the order in which they are
							received. The recordation fee for copyrights is $190. The
							recordation fee for trademarks is $190 per International Class
							of goods. By submitting this application on-line, you agree to
							supply the documents specified in 19
							CFR 133.3
							for trademarks, and 19
							CFR 133.33
							for copyrights, upon request by CBP. Failure to do so will
							result in your recordation being suspended pending receipt of
							the documents. 
							 
							
							We
							recommend that you have the following materials and
							information readily available before you begin the application
							process:
