YELLOWSerial 97112965 · Principal Register
Live · Registered
Owner: Brother Industries, Ltd.
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Filed Nov 08, 2021
Registered Feb 07, 2023
The record shows a live, Principal Register registration for “YELLOW” owned by Brother Industries, Ltd., a corporation organized in Japan, and it was officially registered on Feb 7 2023 after filing on Nov 8 2021; the most recent status event is the notice of registration confirmation on that same date. The protection covers Class 016 goods – specifically tape cartridges and tapes for label‑printing machines and adhesive tapes for stationery or household purposes – so a similar mark used on those kinds of tapes would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Brother Industries control over every possible use of the word “YELLOW,” especially outside the listed tape‑related goods. The prosecution history shows a standard examination path with a non‑final office action in April 2022, a response in October 2022, and final approval for the Principal Register in February 2023, but no supplemental‑register steps appear. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name for tape‑related products, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated categories.
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.
