Trademark Statement of Use Filing

Trademark Statement of Use

Filing a Trademark Statement of Use (SOU) is a critical step to prove your trademark is being used in commerce. It ensures your registration moves forward and your brand gains full legal protection.

  • Mandatory filing for trademark approval after Notice of Allowance.
  • Shows real commercial use of your brand in the marketplace.
