ZEISSSerial 73665573 · Supplemental Register
Live · Registered
Owner: CARL ZEISS AG
Class 035 - Advertising & Business
Class 042 - Scientific & Technology Services
Filed Jul 31, 1986
Registered Jan 12, 1988
The record shows that ZEISS is a live Supplemental Register service mark owned by CARL ZEISS AG, a corporation organized in Germany, and it is currently active. The registration covers “creating data processing programs for others” and “measuring parts for others” in Class 042, plus a cancelled entry in Class 035 for “creating advertising and publicity material for others.” A similar name would raise the closest concern if used for software development, data‑processing services, or measurement services, because those are the exact areas the record protects; uses outside those descriptions are farther from the listed scope but the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word. The prosecution history shows the application was filed in 1986, refused on descriptiveness, then amended and entered on the Supplemental Register in 1988; that sequence reflects the mark’s current supplemental status. The most recent meaningful event is the acceptance of the Section 8 and 9 renewal on Jan 18 2018, confirming the mark’s continued registration. No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the supplied history, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a mark in the same technical‑service fields.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
