TM Application Simplified


The Venezuelan PTO issued a notice abolishing the requirement to physically file a hard copy of a trademark application. As of January 2, 2012, the PTO will allow applicants to file trademark applications along with a copy of the search payment receipt. It will no longer be necessary to enclose the search results as this requirement has been abolished.

The filing and review process shall be made more efficient with these changes. It shall also reduce paper waste.
