TEAS and TEASi maintenance and enhancement section

On Saturday, March 4, 2023, we updated the forms to resolve technical issues and incorporate enhancements based on stakeholder suggestions.

All TEAS and TEASi forms

  • Corrected the forms to remove the display of “Updated” and “Proposed” owner, attorney, and correspondence information in the input table and text form when no changes were made.
  • Removed the telephone number warning messages that appear when owner, attorney, or signatory phone numbers are not provided.
  • Clarified the wording appearing below the attorney bar number entry field with additional instructions. 
  • Revised the image size error message appearing when the image pixel count of the trademark drawing file is too large. Message enhanced to recommend using a basic image-editing tool to adjust the size of the trademark drawing.  
  • Made technical enhancements to reduce down time during TEAS or TEASi deployments.
