Specimens

This webpage explains the requirement for a specimen of your trademark in certain applications, provides examples of acceptable specimens, explains certain common specimen refusals and how to overcome them, and provides instructions on how to submit a response to certain specimen refusals using the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS).

What is a specimen?

A specimen is a sample of your trademark as used in commerce . It is real-life evidence of how you are actually using your trademark in the marketplace with the goods or services in your application or registration maintenance filing. It’s what consumers see when they are considering whether to purchase the goods or services you provide in connection with your trademark.

For goods, a specimen shows your trademark as actually used in commerce with your existing goods in a way that directly associates the trademark with the goods. For example, a specimen could be a label or tag attached to your goods that shows your trademark, a product container or packaging showing your trademark on the packaging, or a website displaying your trademark where your goods can be purchased or ordered.

For services, a specimen shows the trademark as actually used in commerce with your existing services in a way that directly associates the trademark with the services. For example, a specimen could be an advertisement, brochure, website printout or other promotional material which shows your trademark used for the services, business signs where the services are rendered showing your trademark, or a service vehicle showing your trademark.

Generally, you should not submit a physical specimen to the USPTO. Trademark filings with us are done electronically. Therefore, what you submit to us typically is a photograph, scanned copy, screen capture, or printout of the physical specimen of use. Screenshots of webpages must show the URL and date you accessed or printed them.

Am I required to submit a specimen?

If your application is based on “use in commerce” or “intent to use,” you are required to submit a specimen. If your application is based on a foreign application or registration, or you filed under the Madrid Protocol, you are not required to submit a specimen in order to register your mark. However, all registrants are required to submit specimens at required intervals to maintain their registrations.

When you are required to submit a specimen, you must submit one specimen for each class of goods or services in your application or registration maintenance filing. You may be asked to submit additional specimens to properly examine your application or registration maintenance filing.

When do I submit a specimen?

Use-in-commerce applicants

In general, your initial application should include a specimen. For the TEAS Plus filing option, your application will not be accepted without it. In the TEAS application, you’ll be able to attach your specimen file(s) once you select a use-in-commerce filing basis.

Intent-to-use applicants

You must submit a specimen after you submit your initial application.

You can either submit your specimen:

Before your application is approved for publication by filing an Amendment of Allege Use (AAU), or
After you receive a Notice of Allowance (NOA) by filing a Statement of Use (SOU)

Both an AAU and an SOU are claims that you are using your trademark in commerce. They include your specimen and information such as dates of use of your trademark.

See the Intent-to-use applications webpage and the Intent-to-use timeline for more information.

All registrants

You must submit a specimen with your Section 8 or 71 affidavit or declaration of use. These are filed between the fifth and sixth year after registration, and then every ten years from the registration date, during that tenth year, twentieth year, and so on. See the Post Registration FAQS for more information.

What are the requirements for an acceptable specimen?

An acceptable specimen must:

Be a real example of how you use your trademark in commerce in providing your goods or services (not a mock up, printer’s proof, digitally altered image, rendering of intended packaging, or draft of a website that shows how your mark might appear).
Show your trademark used with the goods or services listed in your application.
Depict the same trademark as shown on your drawing .
Show your use of your trademark (not use by someone else, such as press releases sent exclusively to news media).
Be an appropriate type of specimen based on whether you have goods or services. For example, advertising material is an acceptable specimen for services, but not for goods.
Show your trademark used in a way that directly associates the mark with the goods or services.
Show your trademark used in a way that consumers would perceive it as a source indicator for the good or services in your application (it function as as a trademark).
Include the URL and date you accessed or printed the webpage in your submission.
Be attached to TEAS forms as JPG files of up to 5 megabytes or PDF, WAV, .WMV, .WMA, .MP3, .MPG, or .AVI files of up to 30 megabytes. See our specific formatting requirements before submitting your specimen.

If you don’t meet these requirements, the USPTO will refuse to accept your specimen.

For post registration filings, see the Proof of Use Audit Program (“What is proof of use?”) for information on specimens submitted after registration.

Special requirement for URL and date for webpage specimens

Webpage specimens must include the URL and the date the page was accessed or printed. Otherwise, your specimen will be rejected. You can provide the URL and access or print date for a webpage specimen in the following ways.

When submitting the initial application, allegation of use, or registration maintenance filing, choose one of two options:

On the webpage - Include the URL and access or print date on the webpage specimen itself.

See example of specimen for online retail store services.

Here's an example of a webpage specimen for an online retail store with the URL and access date.

See example of substitute specimen for online retail store services.

Here's an example of a substitute webpage specimen for an online retail store with the URL and access date.

In a separate statement - Provide a statement that includes the URL and access or print date in the dedicated fields for webpage specimens in the TEAS response form and sign a prepopulated verification by selecting the proper wizard question in the same response form. Go to the "Response options for overcoming a specimen refusal" section below for instructions regarding submitting this verified information.

When is a specimen unacceptable and refused?

If you receive a specimen refusal, it generally means that:

You did not include the required specimen with your application.
Your specimen is not properly verified, see TMEP 904.05.
Your specimen does not meet one of the specimen requirements above.

Examples of unacceptable specimens

Here are some common reasons why specimens are refused. The examples below don’t meet the requirements for specimens.

Your specimen does not show the trademark in your drawing.
For example, your specimen:
- Does not show your trademark clearly; it is illegible
- Does not show your entire trademark (shows only a part of the trademark in your drawing)
- Does not show the exact trademark in the drawing, but a variation of it.
Your specimen does not show trademark use with the goods or services in your application.
For example, your application identifies t-shirts as your goods, but the specimen shows your trademark advertising your custom t-shirt printing services.
Your specimen does not show your own use of the trademark.
For example, your specimen is a press release sent exclusively to news media or your specimen is a printed article resulting from such a release. However, publicly available press releases, such as on your website, are acceptable to show use for services, but not goods.
Your specimen is not in actual use in commerce.
For example, your specimen:
- Is a printer’s proof
- Is a digitally created or altered image or mock-up
- Is material used only to conduct your daily business of selling goods (e.g., packing slips, business stationery, order forms, waybills, and bills of lading)
- Is only a drawing or depiction of your trademark
- Is a webpage that doesn't include the URL and date accessed/printed
- Shows that your goods have not yet been sold or transported (e.g., pre-sale orders for goods not yet available)
Your specimen is not an appropriate type for your goods or services.
For example, your specimen is only advertising for goods, such as:
- A webpage with insufficient ordering or purchasing information
- A webpage for downloadable software with no means to download or purchase the software.

See TMEP 904, 904.03-904.04, 904.07, and 1301.04-13.01(j) for more information regarding specimen refusals.

Response options for overcoming a specimen refusal

Here are five possible response options for overcoming a specimen refusal. Not all options may be applicable to your specific situation. Review your office action carefully to determine which, if any, of these options may apply.

Submit a verified specimen or verified substitute specimen

Choose this option if either of these are true:

You initially omitted the required specimen from your application.
A substitute specimen was suggested as a response option.

Read more about submitting a verified specimen or verified substitute specimen

Submit a specimen or substitute specimen that demonstrates proper use of your trademark in commerce for your goods and/or services.

The specimen must have been in actual use in commerce by the applicable date below:

For an application: at least as early as the application filing date.
For an AAU: prior to the AAU filing date.
For a SOU: prior to the expiration of the deadline for filing an SOU.

TEAS instructions for submitting a verified specimen or verified substitute specimen

Follow the link in your office action to open the appropriate TEAS form.
Answer "Yes" to form wizard question 2.
Continue on to the next portion of the form and complete steps 4-7 listed below for each relevant class for which a specimen or substitute specimen is being submitted.
Under "Classification and Listing of Goods/Services/Collective Membership Organization," select the following statement, “Check here to modify the current classification number; listing of goods/services/the nature of the collective membership organization; dates of use; and/or filing basis; or to submit a substitute specimen, a foreign registration certificate, or proof of renewal of a foreign registration. If not checked, the changes will be ignored.”
Within the "Classification and Listing of Goods/Services/Collective Membership Organization" section, under "Specimen File," attach a jpg or pdf file of the specimen or substitute specimen by using the "Click here to Attach Specimen(s)" button. The size of your attachment may not exceed 5 megabytes per file.
In the textbox below the "Click here to Attach Specimen(s)" button, describe what the specimen consists of.
Check the checkbox stating, "Check this box if specimens are now being submitted or were previously submitted unverified in the initial application." Checking this box will automatically add both of the following required declarations to the form:

"The substitute (or new, or originally submitted, if appropriate) specimen(s) was/were in use in commerce at least as early as the filing date of the application" and "The substitute (or new, or originally submitted, if appropriate) specimen(s) was/were in use in commerce prior either to the filing of the Amendment to Allege Use or expiration of the filing deadline for filing a Statement of Use.”

Once all relevant classes have been addressed, click the “Continue” button.

Note about dates of use: If your substitute specimen was used in commerce on different dates than the dates of use for the refused specimen, update the dates of use in your application, AAU or SOU to reflect the correct dates of use for your substitute specimen.

Change your filing basis or withdraw your AAU

Choose this option if either is true:

You have a use-in-commerce application in which you omitted the required specimen,
You included the specimen with your application or AAU, but your specimen was refused.

Read more about changing the filing basis or withdrawing your AAU

Change your filing basis to Section 1(b) (“intent to use”) or withdraw your AAU to return to a Section 1(b) basis, which does not require a specimen. However, you’ll need to allege use of your mark in commerce and submit a specimen of use before your trademark can register. So, a proper specimen and an additional fee will be required again later in the application process.

If you have a dual bases application under Sections 1(a) and 44, you can delete the Section 1(a) basis entirely from the application and proceed with the Section 44 basis only. You don’t need to submit specimens for a Section 44 basis in order to register your mark.
