Trademark Renewal Online: What is a Trademark renewal?

Trademarks have a validity period of up to 10 years. To continue protecting your asset legally, you must renew your trademark after that. It is vital to submit trademark renewal requests six months before the expiration of the trademark. Trademark registrars will remind you that your registration will expire soon. A letter will indicate the terms of expiration and the fees to be paid for renewing the trademark. If you do not submit a renewal or registration required by the Registrar, your trademark will be removed from the Trademark Journal. When a trademark is renewed, its rights which registered trademarks can only enjoy, remain intact. If a trademark owner fails to renew his trademark, he forfeits all trademark protection. In some cases, a person may forget to renew their trademark within the specified time frame. In such circumstances, there is an option available. In the event of a failure to renew a trademark, one can attempt to restore it. A trademark can be restored only within one year of its expiration. A fee for restoring a trademark is in addition to the renewal fee.
