Trademark FAQs - related questions & answers

Question: Do I need to translate my trademarks into a foreign language?

Answer:
No. When translating text/documents into another language, the trademark doesn’t need to be translated. Often there is no literal translation of the term, and the significance of the trademark is not how it translates.

Question: How do I find out whether a mark is already registered?

Answer:
You may conduct a search free of charge on the USPTO website using the Trademark Electronic Search System (TESS)

Question: Can a business trademark a domain name for future use?

Answer:
It is possible to gain ownership of a trademark by filing an "intent-to-use" (ITU) trademark application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) before actually starting to use the domain name.
