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

If your application has not yet been filed, you can still make changes—such as adding or switching classes, or updating your brand name or logo—at no extra cost. Our legal team will review the updates and adjust your application accordingly.
However, once your trademark application has been filed, no changes can be made to the classes or the logo. Trademark rules do not allow modifications after filing. In this case, any changes would require filing a new, separate application, which would involve additional fees.
