Brand regeistry
I am having significant problems with the brand registry and no one is willing or able to help me get my brand approved I have been fighting this for months. They keep sending me into an endless loop of things to do with absolutely no results. They close the cases before it's fixed and just say here talk to "Brand Registry" or "We have started a case in seller central". If anyone knows how to get my brand registered which I have the patent and trademark for that would be so amazing. I need to be approved as soon as possible waiting 6 months is unbelievable. Come on Amazon. IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LEAVE A REPLY.

I'm going to start with the easiest part since you say it's been going for six months.
Doing a search of the USPTO site finds NO filing for
'Handy_Hangers' AND a search for 'Handy Hangers' which is what you have for a store name finds TWO DEAD filings --
Live/Dead Indicator DEAD
Cancellation Date February 28, 1992
and:
Goods and Services (ABANDONED) IC 006. US 013.
Live/Dead Indicator DEAD
So here is the LONG list of possible issues but the first is that the USPTO does not know you even exist as a brand.
Is your Brand registered (or applied for) with the USPTO?
Amazon has changed course and is admitting applicants under CERTAIN conditions.
This is from Sandy_Amazon on 5/16/2023
“To be eligible for Amazon Brand Registry, your brand must have an active registered trademark in each country where you wish to enroll or have a pending trademark application filed through Amazon IP Accelerator. Brand Registry is also accepting brands that have a trademark pending registration in a subset of trademark offices.”
Additionally, IF you ever get an actual TM (if you don’t now) when Amazon says something must match they mean EXACTLY!
That means Street is not ST.
Jim is not James.
ALL CAPS is not SOme CAps
Thanks to Sandy_Amazon for letting us all know that Brand Registry applications are also space sensitive.
And so on………………..
They mean every comma, period, dash, etc. must be EXACTLY THE SAME INCLUDING SPACE S.
Go over everything with a magnifying glass looking for a missing 'period' or 'comma'. Is there a different capitalization, abbreviation, spelling, or, even an extra spa ce?
What is the EXACT BRAND (as GRANTED) on the USPTO site? Is it the EXACT same as the Brand on the Amazon account AND the brand on the packaging?
What is the name of the Owner (REGISTRANT) on the USPTO site? Is it the EXACT same name as the owner of the Amazon account?
If it is NOT exactly the same you will need to show some proof that the two are the same. As I recall, I had to submit my LLC State Registration with MY name as the owner of the LLC since my Amazon account is under a different LLC name.
The OWNER of the Brand is the one that MUST enter into the Brand Registry agreement. If the owner is not the same as the Amazon seller the seller will have to be granted access by the owner.
