CARL ZEISS D *Serial 75827527 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: CARL ZEISS AG
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Oct 20, 1999
Registered Oct 16, 2001
The record shows a cancelled Principal Register registration (Reg. No. 2497629) for “CARL ZEISS D *” owned by CARL ZEISS AG, a German corporation, and the mark is no longer live; the USPTO cancelled it on July 18 2008 because the registrant failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration. The registration covered only photographic lenses in International Class 009, so a similar name used for lenses or other optical equipment would be the closest area of concern, while uses in unrelated categories fall farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “CARL ZEISS” or “D *.” This mark was never placed on the Supplemental Register, so the prosecution history simply reflects its approval, publication for opposition, registration, and eventual cancellation. No oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name that targets photographic lenses, but the risk drops for dissimilar goods.
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.
