Trademark Renewal and Expiry Review Support
Keep your registered mark under review before its renewal date. TaxQue helps check the registration, proprietor, classes and current Registry status and prepare the agreed renewal application. Share the registration details and any notice already received.
Renewal is different from applying for a new trademark or changing ownership. If a mark has expired or been removed, the available late-renewal or restoration route needs a date-specific assessment. Confirm the classes, official charges and application scope; renewal does not resolve every pending challenge to the mark.
What is Trademark Renewal?
Check registration and expiry: Review the registered proprietor, mark, classes and relevant renewal date against Registry records.
Choose renewal or restoration work: An expired or removed mark may require a different application and additional charges; assess the exact dates first.
Retain the renewed record: Track the application and retain the Registry confirmation when issued. Ownership changes and disputes are separate work.
Check the current official requirement
Forms, fees, due dates and eligibility can change and may differ by entity, state, activity or tax year. We confirm the relevant official instructions and the applicant’s facts before filing. Government fees, taxes, stamp duty, third-party charges and professional fees are identified separately in the engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about Trademark Renewal
Under Section 25 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, a registered trademark must be renewed every 10 years from the original application date. Renewing on time extends your legal ownership and exclusive brand monopoly indefinitely in 10-year increments.
You can apply for renewal at any time within one year before the expiration date of the 10-year registration period by filing Form TM-R with standard government fees.
If you miss the deadline, you have a 6-month grace period from the expiration date to file Renewal with Surcharge (Late Fee) via Form TM-R. If the 6-month grace period also lapses, the mark is marked 'Removed' from the register, and you must apply for Restoration under Section 25(4) within 1 year of expiration.
If your trademark was removed for non-renewal, you can apply for Restoration and Renewal within 1 year from the date of expiration by filing Form TM-R along with an affidavit explaining the genuine delay. Once approved, the Registrar restores the mark as if it had never expired. TaxQue handles trademark restorations.
Your renewal is handled by our dedicated Trademark Portfolio Management Desk and authorized by a Registered Trademark Attorney. We verify class details, calculate exact government fees, and ensure accurate filing of your renewal request.
