Email from alert@tsdruspto.email, "Trademark Application - Request for Classification Clarification, Dear ,
Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §§ 1051–1052 and in accordance with TMEP §§ 1401.02, 806.01, and 1202, your trademark application is currently under initial examination by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
Preliminary review indicates that additional or clarified classification details are necessary to ensure your application accurately reflects your actual commercial activities. Under the Nice Agreement, all goods and services must be correctly classified under their appropriate international classes. Failure to provide proper classification may result in processing delays, limited protection for your mark, or additional proceedings before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB).
Why Classification MattersA properly classified multi-class application ensures your mark receives protection across all commercial areas in which it is actively used.
For example: If your business sells apparel (Class 25) and markets it online or in-store, Class 35 covers retail, advertising, distribution, business management, and other essential commercial services, while Class 40 applies if you offer custom printing or embroidery.
In many cases, Class 35 is critical not only to demonstrate use in commerce but also to protect your advertising, distribution, and commercial operations.
Action RequiredTo complete your application and avoid rejection or unnecessary Office Actions, please reply to this email with any additional information or clarifications regarding your business model, the goods and/or services offered under your mark, and your intended commercial use.
Failure to respond may result in your application proceeding without full class coverage or formal refusal.
Thank you for your attention and cooperation.
Sincerely,United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)"
