LegalMark summary published on 11 October 2026.
The news.
WIPO announces that Madrid e-Filing is the default channel for U.S. applicants who present new international questions based on questions or trademark registrations in the USA. The platform replaces the previous USPTO TEASi and allows the online management of the deposit and communication with the office of origin. The novelty is about this specific American route.
LegalMark's reading.
For groups that have assets in the United States, a map of ownership and basic questions helps to identify which practices are affected. Before setting an international extension it is advisable to distinguish the office of origin, the desired territories and the status of the trademark used as a basis.
Questions to be brought to the company.
- What is the office of origin of the question?
- Who is the holder of the basic mark?
- What territories and products fall within the international project?
