& TOKYO
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “& TOKYO” is dead, having been cancelled because the international registration was cancelled in whole or in part. The owner listed is the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, a local government organized in Japan. The mark covered services in class 039—railway, car, boat, air transport, travel tours, escorting travellers, and travel arrangement and reservation services—and class 043—providing temporary accommodation, reservation of temporary accommodation, and preparation of food and beverages. A similar name would raise the closest concern in those transportation and hospitality services. The record does not give control over every use of the wording; it only reflects the specific services listed. The prosecution history shows a refusal for descriptiveness followed by a registration on the Principal Register, with no indication of Supplemental Register activity. The latest status event is the cancellation on August 10 2025, and no enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the cancellation suggests a reduced risk, but the specific services listed still present a potential concern.
