Statement of Use

If you are not selling under your mark yet, there is one more cost later. Here it is up front.

$250for a one-class filing, charged later
Each additional class adds $150 in USPTO fees. The $100 service fee is charged once, whatever the class count.
  • MARQ service fee$100Flat fee to prepare and file your Statement of Use. Charged once, no matter how many classes.
  • USPTO filing fee$150 / classGovernment fee, passed through at cost. We add nothing to it.

When this applies — in plain English

Only if you file on intent to use. That is the option for a mark you have not started selling under yet. The USPTO lets you claim the name early, then prove you are using it later.

Pay later or choose optional prepayment. New registration customers can prepay the $100 MARQ fee and $150-per-class USPTO fee at checkout. If you have not prepaid, including on an existing case, pay through your portal when ready for the later filing. Prepayment does not file a Statement of Use or establish use. After a Notice of Allowance, you generally have six months to file proof of use or request an extension.

You do not pay this at all if you are already using the mark. A use-in-commerce filing needs no Statement of Use, so this cost never applies. If you are already selling under the name, your total is $649 plus the $350-per-class USPTO fee and nothing further.

You file it from your client portal. When you are ready, open the matter in your MARQ portal, enter your first-use dates, upload a specimen showing the mark in use, and pay. It goes straight to your attorney to prepare and file with the USPTO.

If you need more time, the USPTO grants six-month extensions for a separate government fee. We tell you what is due before anything is filed, and we track every deadline for you.

Common pricing questions
Questions

Frequently asked

Is there any cost after the $649 + USPTO fee?

The initial one-class application is $999 at the base fee: $649 legal fee plus $350 USPTO fee. Separately purchased searches, additional classes, government surcharges, office actions, extensions, and later maintenance can cost extra. An intent-to-use application can require a later Statement of Use: $100 MARQ fee plus $150 USPTO fee per class, bringing a one-class matter to $1,249 before other extras. Optional monitoring is not required. The selected service agreement explains what is included.

How long does trademark registration take?

Straightforward applications typically register in roughly 8 to 14 months. The USPTO examines your filing, publishes it for opposition, and — if there are no issues — registers it. Filing correctly the first time avoids the delays an office action causes.

What is the difference between the TM and R symbols?

You can use TM (or SM for services) on any mark you claim, even without a registration. The R-in-a-circle symbol may only be used once your mark is federally registered with the USPTO.

Do I have to register in every country?

No — a U.S. registration protects you in the United States. If you sell abroad, you can extend protection to other countries, often through the Madrid Protocol based on your U.S. filing.

Is my payment and information secure?

Yes. Stripe processes payment-card information; MARQ does not store your full card number. Matter information is handled through access-controlled systems for service delivery, operations, and legal recordkeeping as described in the Privacy Notice.

Do I really work with a real attorney?

MARQ’s attorneys handle legal work and application review. Your application is handled through that attorney-led workflow rather than filed as an unreviewed form submission.

What does "$649 + USPTO fees" actually mean?

Our flat legal fee is $649. The USPTO charges a separate government filing fee (currently $350 per class of goods/services). We bill that at cost — we never mark it up.

What if my trademark is already taken?

A similar registered mark does not automatically mean your application will be denied. You can still file, but the examining attorney may issue a likelihood-of-confusion office action. The marks, goods and services, and other facts determine the risk. An attorney-reviewed search helps assess that risk before filing; it cannot guarantee approval.

How long does registration take?

Preparation depends on receiving complete client information and attorney review. USPTO examination and registration timing varies; office actions, opposition, and intent-to-use requirements can add time. Check the current USPTO dashboard and your matter status rather than relying on a guaranteed completion date.

What is an office action?

It's an official letter from the USPTO raising an issue with your application. Procedural ones ($499 to respond) are usually simple; substantive refusals (starting at $999) need a legal argument. We handle both.
