The USPTO has published a new rule in the Federal Register requiring electronic filing for trademark submissions.
This rule becomes effective on October 5.
Trademark
applicants and registrants will be required to file online using the
USPTO's Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS). Applicants and
registrants will need to provide and maintain an accurate email address
for receiving correspondence from the USPTO.
Paper and fax submissions will no longer be accepted. Email submissions will continue to not be accepted.
