ZEISS

What this record means

The record shows a live, registered Principal Register service mark owned by Carl Zeiss AG, a corporation organized in Germany, and it covers licensing of computer software and related technology in fields such as vision care, medical technology, semiconductors, industrial metrology, microscopy, photography, cinematography, spectroscopy and consumer optics under International Class 045. A similar name used for software licensing or technology services in any of those areas would create the closest record‑based concern, because the goods and services are narrowly defined to those fields. The record does not give Carl Zeiss AG control over every possible use of the word “ZEISS” outside that scope. The latest meaningful event is the notice of registration confirmation and entry on the Principal Register on June 2 2026, which also serves as the current status date. The supplied prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions, so no visible enforcement signal appears. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to offer software licensing or related tech services in the listed domains.
