In short: a trademark protects your brand name or logo in the US. Amazon sellers need one to enroll in Amazon Brand Registry. Under USPTO rules, foreign-domiciled applicants must file through a US-licensed attorney — we arrange everything.
Who needs a trademark
- Amazon sellers — for Brand Registry and protecting listings from copycats.
- Brands and online services — so nobody else registers your name in the US.
- Companies entering the US market — before launching ads and sales.
How we register your trademark
- Search — we look for similar marks in the USPTO database to assess the risks.
- Classes — we define the classes of goods and services (the fee depends on how many).
- Application — prepared and filed through a US attorney.
- Examination — a USPTO examining attorney reviews the application; we respond to any office action.
- Publication — the mark is published so third parties can oppose it.
- Registration — we obtain the certificate and remind you about maintaining the mark.
What we need from you
- The brand name or logo.
- A list of goods or services.
- The owner — you personally or your LLC.
- Examples of use (product photos, website), if the mark is already used in the US.
Timing
USPTO registration takes a long time and depends on the examination queue and any objections. A filed application can be useful before registration is complete — for example, Amazon accepts pending applications for Brand Registry under its own rules.
Price
- Trademark (USPTO) — from $900 including the filing fee.
- The final price depends on the number of classes and any examiner objections.
FAQ
Can I join Amazon Brand Registry before the certificate is issued?
Amazon allows enrollment with a pending application. We check Amazon's current requirements before filing.
Can a non-resident register a US trademark?
Yes, through a US attorney. The USPTO requires this for foreign-domiciled applicants.
Should the mark be registered to me or to my LLC?
Both are possible. Our lawyers will advise which works better for your business.
Do you guarantee registration?
The USPTO makes the decision. We assess the risks upfront and support the application all the way.
