The USPTO’s Acceptable Identification of Goods and Services Manual (ID Manual) has been enhanced to add new features and resources. Status checkboxes enable users to refine search results on the basis of the status of an entry. The example status “X” indicates entries that often include more detail than identification policy requires. USPTO staff are reviewing existing entries to update statuses to “X” and adding new“X” entries submitted through vog.otpsunull@tsegguSDIMT every week.
Detailed “Guidance for Users” and “Searching the Manual” pages describe all of the features and functions of the ID Manual. Please see the Notice at http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/resources/IDManual_Update.jsp
for more details. The ID Manual is available on the USPTO’s website at http://tess2.uspto.gov/netahtml/tidm.html
