Risks of Missing a Trademark Renewal Neglecting to renew your trademark can expose your brand
Neglecting to renew your trademark can expose your brand
to significant risks, such as:
Loss of Legal Rights
Missing your renewal deadline can result in the cancellation of your trademark protection.
Reapplication Expenses
Letting your registration lapse could force you to refile, costing both time and money.
Risk of Brand Misuse
A lapsed trademark opens the door for others to use similar marks, potentially damaging your brand’s reputation.
If your trademark has been registered for more than five years, it may be time to file for renewal.
