Trademark Alert
We often receive questions about how to most easily access frequently used pages and tools on the USPTO website. The best way is the "Quick links" button in the upper right-hand corner of every page.
For example, Trademark customers can use “Quick links” to directly access:
•TESS (Trademark Electronic Search System)
•TEAS (Trademark Electronic Application System)
•TSDR (Trademark Status and Document Retrieval)
•TTAB (Trademark Trial and Appeal Board) online systems (ESTTA, TTABVUE)
•Search and record assignments
•TMEP (Trademark Manual of Examining Procedure)
•Trademark ID Manual
•TBMP (Trademark Trial and Appeal Board Manual of Procedure) *newly added*
•Updates and announcements
•Fees and payment
•System status
