Trademark Registration process for Boston, MA businesses
- Confirm your entity is registered in Massachusetts. Most trademark registration requirements assume an active Massachusetts LLC or corporation. If you're operating in Boston but registered in another state, you may need to foreign qualify in Massachusetts first.
- Gather required information. Specific to trademark registration, you'll typically need entity name, EIN, registered agent address, and the Boston/Massachusetts-specific details for the filing.
- Pay the filing fee. $250+ USPTO + $0 service fee. Trademark Registration fees can vary slightly by filing method.
- Submit to the appropriate authority. Federal services (EIN, trademark, BOI) go to IRS/USPTO/FinCEN. State services (DBA, foreign qualification, annual report) go to the Massachusetts Secretary of State or applicable state agency.
- Track Boston-specific follow-on requirements. Boston businesses often need local business licenses, sales tax permits, or occupational licenses depending on industry. We surface these in the post-filing workflow.
