Legal analysis: To register an application for a trademark in the Trademark Office, the status shows "Application for receipt", which means that the Trademark Office has received the relevant application documents. Under normal circumstances, after the application documents are submitted to the expired Trademark Office, a receipt will be received from the Trademark Office soon to inform the applicant that the documents have been received. If the application is made on the website, the words "application receipt" will be displayed in the status bar.
The whole process of applying for registration is divided into five steps, which are: application, formal examination, substantive examination, preliminary examination announcement and registration. Therefore, if the status shows "Application for receipt", the process of applying for registration is the first step, followed by examination and registration.
