To access Trademark Center, the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS), and TEAS International (TEASi), you need to log in to a USPTO.gov account with two-step authentication.
Don’t share your password
You’ll use a password to access your USPTO.gov account. Never share your password for your USPTO.gov account, even with someone who helps you file your application. If you do, they may use your account to file without your knowledge, including in applications that don’t belong to you. This could result in your account being suspended.
You must create your own account. If someone offers to make an account for you, stop. They may keep using the account with your name on it to gain unauthorized access to USPTO systems.
If you hire an attorney to represent you, the attorney must have their own USPTO.gov account to file on your behalf. They do not need to file through your account. If they tell you otherwise, they are likely a scammer.
Identity verification for trademark filers
Identity verification is mandatory for USPTO.gov account holders to file through Trademark Center, TEAS, and TEASi. For most users, this one-time verification process can be completed online in less than 15 minutes. We also offer a paper verification process for those who do not wish to verify online.
For more information, see identity verification for trademark filers.
Multifactor authentication
We transitioned to more secure authentication methods. For more information, see new options for more secure authentication.
