IMA

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “IMA” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by AMS Design Co., LTD, a corporation organized in Japan. The registration covers fishing equipment, specifically fishing lures, first used in commerce in February 2006. A similar name would raise the closest concern for businesses dealing with fishing lures or related fishing gear, while use in unrelated industries would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give control over every use of the word “IMA.” The most recent maintenance event was the renewal of the registration on March 12, 2018, which extended the mark’s protection for another ten years. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history, so the record shows no visible enforcement activity. If you are considering a similar name, the presence of this active registration for fishing lures suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in that specific market.
