SMILING

What this record means

The record shows that “SMILING” is a live Principal Register registration owned by SHENZHEN YOULAI TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD., a limited company organized in China, and it was officially registered on July 30 2024 after publication for opposition on May 14 2024. The registration covers Class 009 goods described as cases adapted for holding smartwatches, cell phone cases, mobile phone screen protectors, and smartwatch bands, so a similar name used on comparable electronic accessories would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word “SMILING,” especially outside those listed products. The prosecution history shows an examiner’s amendment on April 11 2024 that led to approval for registration on the Principal Register, but no supplemental‑register issues appear. The latest meaningful event is the notice of registration confirmation emailed on July 30 2024, and the supplied history shows no opposition, cancellation or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a mark for similar electronic accessories.
