Do Status Points expire?

Status Points expire at the end of the Registration Period, the Status Counter is then automatically reset to zero. The Registration Period is defined as follows:

  • For a Trademark Holder or Trademark Agent who registered one or more trademarks in the Trademark Clearinghouse during the Early Bird Registration Period: The initial Registration Period will begin when they registered the first trademark in the Trademark Clearinghouse and ends on the first anniversary of the closing date of the Early Bird Registration Period.
  • For a Trademark Holder or Trademark Agent who did not register a trademark during the Early Bird Registration Period: The initial Registration Period will begin when they registered the first trademark in the Trademark Clearinghouse and ends on the first anniversary of such date.
  • Thereafter, in either of the above two cases, each subsequent Registration Period shall consist of a 12 month period beginning on the date of termination of the previous Registration Period and ending on the first anniversary of such date.
