【美国商标注册常见问题】收到 Office Action(驳回意见),多久内答复?逾期如何处理?
Time: 2025-10-31 Click count: 895

一、答复期限:6个月
1、起算时间:自Office Action 签发日期(非收到日)起算。
2、截止日期:6个月整(USPTO不接受“自然月”计算,需[敏感词]到日)。
示例:若通知签发日为2024年1月15日,答复截止日为2024年7月15日。
3、查询截止日:登录USPTO的 TSDR系统(Trademark Status and Document Retrieval)输入申请号,实时查看剩余天数。
二、逾期未答复的后果

1、申请自动放弃(Abandoned)

系统在截止日次日将申请状态标记为 “Abandoned”,丧失商标优先权。

2、恢复申请条件:

需在放弃日起 2个月内 提交 Petition to Revive(恢复申请[敏感词]书)并满足以下全部条件:

缴纳官方费用 $150;

提交完整的答复文件(回应原Office Action);

签署 声明书(Declaration),证明逾期由“非故意(Unintentional)”原因导致(如代理失误、邮件遗漏等)。

3、超2个月未处理:申请[敏感词]失效,需重新提交并支付全额申请费。

⚠️ 数据参考:USPTO统计显示,约 12% 的商标因未答复Office Action而失效,其中仅 35% 成功恢复。

三、Office Action类型及答复策略

四、延期与分阶段答复(特殊情况)

1、主动请求延期

在6个月截止日前提交 Request for Extension of Time,可延长6个月(仅限基于“意向使用”的申请)。

2、分阶段答复(Partial Response)

若需补充复杂证据(如市场调查),可先答复部分问题并说明其余材料将后续提交(需获审查员同意)。

五、操作流程(答复步骤)

1、登录USPTO电子系统:通过 TEAS(Trademark Electronic Application System)提交答复。

2、针对性回应:逐条反驳审查意见,引用法条(如TMEP §1200论证显著性)。

3、证据文件:上传PDF/JPG格式的证明文件(单文件≤30MB)。

4、确认提交:收到确认编号(Confirmation No.)即成功,状态将在7-10日内更新。
