Brand registration in the USA for business on Amazon (Amazon Brand Registry)
For many, entering the American market is a lifelong dream. The Americans pay a lot of attention to the protection of the commercial interests of the right holder. To successfully run your own business in the USA (Amazon), you will definitely need brand registration. It is based on the principle of first application. That is, if someone already uses the icon or name, third parties will not be able to register. By registering a trademark, the brand owner in the US has protection and preferences against misuse, including on global platforms such as Amazon.

How to register your own brand in the USA?
If you want to interest the American consumer in your services or goods, the registration of the brand must take place according to the rules of the United States. This can be done using one of the above methods:
- Legalization in Ukraine and expansion of the brand to the territory of the USA.
This option is suitable in cases where the brand has already been registered in accordance with Ukrainian legislation.
- Registration directly on the territory of the USA.
Suitable for those who associate their professional activities exclusively with the USA.
The national patent office in the USA is called the USPTO – Patent and Trademark Office. To register a brand, you need to submit an application. The trademark or badge will be checked for uniqueness.
So that there is no coincidence or similarity with other brands, it is better to search through the US trademark database – Trademark Electronic Search System (TESS). This will help prevent application rejection and save your time and money.
On average, the national registration of a trademark in the USA takes about a year (if no problems are found). Certain specific rules apply in the USA. For example, before submitting documents, you need to have a reason: prove that the brand has already been used before or you want to use it.
The certificate confirming the rights to the trademark is valid for 10 years. After 5 years, a declaration of commercial use or non-use of the registered brand must be submitted (there must be good reasons for this). After 10 years, it is possible to extend the validity of the brand if it is used. If the trademark is not used, the rights holder loses exclusive rights to the brand.
The cost of registering a trademark in the USA and a brand on Amazon
The cost of registering a brand in the USA is formed by the following components: state duty for filing an application in the first class – from 250 USD, application after 5 years from the start of use – from 125 USD, further extension – from 425 USD.
