Trademark maintenance and enforcement refer to the ongoing legal duties and active steps an owner must take to keep a trademark registration alive and protect their exclusive brand rights. The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) enforces maintenance requirements to ensure that trademarks are not merely registered, but are actively used in the marketplace.
