Serial 85749882 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused

Owner: Facebook
Class 043 - Restaurant & Hotel Services
Filed Oct 10, 2012

The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is dead and was abandoned after a decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The owner listed is Facebook, a corporation organized in Canada, and the mark was filed on October 10, 2012 on an intent‑to‑use basis. The only goods or services listed are fast‑food restaurant services, restaurant and cafe services, restaurant and hotel services, and related international food services under class 043. Because the mark was never registered and is now abandoned, it does not give Facebook control over the word “Facebook” in any other context. The closest record‑based concern would arise if someone used the name for a restaurant or hospitality business, since that is the exact scope shown. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. For someone thinking of a similar name, the risk is limited to the restaurant and hotel services area; in other industries the record offers no direct concern.

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.

Your name deserves a straight answer.
