USPTO Encourages Trademark Electronic Filing During Move

The USPTO's new headquarters shown above is designed to facilitate optimum performance from the state-of-the-art technology the agency uses for full electronic processing of trademark applications. According to the USPTO's website, "trademark applicants and registrants are "strongly encouraged to file documents via the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS ), and to file documents with the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board via the Electronic System for Trademark Trials and Appeals (ESTTA ). This is especially important during the transition to the new offices to avoid delays in processing."
