You must file a Section 8 declaration, specimen, and fee on a date that falls on or between the fifth (5th) and sixth (6th) anniversaries of the registration (or, for an extra fee of $100.00 per class, you may file within the six-month grace period following the sixth (6th) anniversary date). You must subsequently file a Section 8 declaration, specimen, and fee on a date that falls on or between the ninth (9th) and tenth (10th) anniversaries of the registration, and each successive ten-year period thereafter (or, for an extra fee of $100.00 per class, you may file within the six-month grace period). FAILURE TO FILE A SECTION 8 DECLARATION WILL RESULT IN CANCELLATION OF THE REGISTRATION. Note: Because the time for filing a ten-year Section 8 declaration coincides with the time for filing a Section 9 renewal request, a combined §§ 8 & 9 form exists.

NOTE: You must complete any field preceded by the symbol "*".

NOTE: This form has a session time limit of 60 minutes. If there is no activity within 60 minutes, the form will expire and you must begin again. A session begins once you click the Continue button, below. "Activity" means performing an actual function within the form (e.g., entering data or clicking on a data field), not merely moving "back" or "forward" from within your browser.

Each time a function is performed, a new 60-minute period begins. Therefore, this session time limit should only be a problem if you start the form and then totally stop work for more than 60 minutes, but will not be an issue if you happen to take longer than 60 minutes of steady work to complete the form.

WARNING: You are filing only a Section 8 affidavit of use or excusable nonuse. If a Section 9 renewal application is also due, it is not included here. If necessary, please see the Combined declaration of use in commerce/application for renewal of registration of mark under Sections 8 & 9. If a Section 9 renewal application is due and is not timely filed, your registration will be cancelled. Please make sure you file all the required forms, and that the owner name identified on the form(s) is correct.

1. Is there one registrant but more than one signatory, or joint or multiple registrants?
Yes No If the answer is Yes, enter the number of signatories

2. Do you want to appoint a Domestic Representative?
Yes No

3. Is an attorney filing this form?

NOTE [UPDATED 03/03/2007]: The USPTO considers powers of attorney to end upon either (1) the date of registration; or (2) the final acceptance or denial of a required post-registration filing. Therefore, if you answer YES to this question and file this form, the USPTO will presume that you are now the registrant's attorney. This filing will now automatically update the "Attorney of Record" and the "Correspondence Address" data fields in the USPTO's TARR database. After submission of this form, it is no longer necessary to file a separate Appointment of Attorney form or Change of Correspondence Address form.
Once the USPTO recognizes an attorney with respect to the submission of a required post-registration filing, such as an affidavit under Section 8, an application for renewal under Section 9, etc., the USPTO will recognize only that attorney for all submissions related to that filing, such as responses to Office actions, petitions, etc., unless and until the registrant revokes and appoints a new power of attorney.

Yes No
