TBS

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “TBS” is no longer live; it was cancelled on November 5, 2021 because the registrant, Tool Branding Service, Inc., failed to file a required declaration. The mark was originally registered on the Principal Register on June 22, 1999 for class 042, covering scientific and technology services such as security imprinting and encoding identification information on valuable equipment, tools, documents and products. Because the mark was cancelled, the owner no longer holds enforceable rights, but the historical registration still indicates that the owner once claimed protection over that specific type of service. The record shows no opposition, cancellation, or court action beyond the cancellation itself, so there is no visible enforcement activity. If you are considering a similar name for services that involve security imprinting or related technology services, the closest concern would be this cancelled mark, but the cancellation means the owner currently has no active claim. The practical risk is that while the mark is no longer enforceable, the historical registration could still raise questions in a trademark search for related services.
