CASIO

What this record means

This record shows that the mark “CASIO” is no longer active; it was cancelled on December 18 1991 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The owner listed is CASIO KEISANKI KABUSHIKI KAISHA, a corporation organized in Japan. The mark was registered on the Principal Register in class 009 for “encodable identity key cards used in financial transactions,” with first use on August 13 1984. Because the goods are specific to financial transaction cards, a similar name used for unrelated products would present a farther concern, while a name used for other financial‑transaction cards would raise a closer concern. The record contains no evidence of opposition, cancellation, or court action, so there is no visible enforcement activity. The last meaningful event was the cancellation in 1991. Anyone considering a similar name should note that this cancelled registration does not give the owner control over all uses of the word “CASIO,” but it does show that the mark once covered a narrow, specific product line.
