What is the filing fee for the first trademark assignment submitted together?

The correct filing fee for the first trademark assignment submitted together is $40. This fee applies when submitting assignments using the USPTO’s online electronic filing system, known as the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS). The TEAS system allows trademark owners to efficiently submit assignment requests, and the fee structure is designed to streamline processing for both the USPTO and applicants.

When trademark owners wish to officially record the transfer of their trademark rights, the assignment must be submitted with the appropriate fee to maintain accurate records in the USPTO database. Each submission is subject to the established fee, which is particularly aimed at ensuring that all updates to trademark ownership are documented formally.

Following the established fee schedule helps maintain the integrity of the trademark system by supporting the administrative functions necessary for managing trademark assignments and ownership records. Understanding the fee structure is essential for applicants to facilitate necessary changes regarding trademark ownership without incurring additional complications or delays.
