Yes, non-U.S. residents can register trademarks in the U.S., ensuring their brand is protected under U.S. law. However, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) requires foreign applicants to be represented by a U.S.-licensed attorney to file and process trademark applications.

Key Requirements for Non-U.S. Residents:

1. U.S.-Licensed Attorney Representation

The USPTO mandates that all foreign trademark applicants be represented by a U.S.-licensed attorney to ensure compliance with U.S. trademark laws.

2. Trademark Application Filing

Applicants must provide details such as the business name, logo, and the goods or services the trademark will cover.

Filing under the correct international classification is essential for securing strong trademark protection.

3. Protection & Legal Benefits

• Registering a trademark in the U.S. grants nationwide protection prevents unauthorized use, and strengthens brand credibility.
• A registered trademark helps businesses enforce legal rights against infringement.
