What if I want to add classes or change my logo after starting the process? Are there extra costs involved?

If the application has not yet been filed, changes can be made at no extra cost: classes can be added or changed, and the mark itself can be updated.
Once the application is filed, no changes are possible to the mark or to the classes. Classes cannot be added, and the logo cannot be altered. If additional classes are needed after filing, a new separate application must be submitted for those classes.
