Identity Verification for USPTO.gov Account Holders to Be Mandatory Soon


On January 8, 2022, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) introduced identity verification for USPTO.gov account holders using the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) and TEAS international (TEASi).

There are two different methods for customers available to verify their identities:
- paper identity verification process
- online via ID.me

The USPTO advises that starting April 9, 2022, identity verification will be required for USPTO.gov account holders to file through TEAS and TEASi.
