What this record means
The record shows that the mark “CASIO” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Casio Keisanki Kabushiki Kaisha, a corporation organized in Japan. The registration covers services in class 035, specifically retail store services that feature computer hardware, computer peripherals, computer software, timepieces, musical instruments, cameras, consumer electronics and accessories, audio visual equipment, business and office equipment, office supplies and accessories, telecommunications goods, and personal identification authentication and security equipment. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same retail and electronic goods and services area, especially where the goods or services overlap with those listed. The record does not grant control over every use of the word “CASIO”; it is limited to the services described. There is no prosecution history indicating a descriptiveness refusal or Supplemental Register move, and the record shows no enforcement activity. The latest status event is a renewal, with no further dates provided. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of this active registration in a broad retail and electronics service class suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in those areas.
