D) PERTAINING TO eTRADEMARKS<br />

Pre-2004 Circular<br />

New Features of IPOS’ eTrademarks Services<br />

(1) Generation of Check Digit/Year of Trade Mark Numbers<br />

A new eService for the generation of year/check digit of Trade Mark Number is added to<br />

IPOS Online Transactions. This eService has two fields for entry. One is for the old TM No<br />

format while the other is for the new TM No format. For the old TM No format, both the year<br />

and the check digit would be generated. For the new TM No format, the check digit will be<br />

generated.<br />

This eService is already available.<br />

(2) Attachment for Form TM26<br />

The eService for Form TM26 has been enhanced. As filing of Form TM26 usually requires a<br />

covering letter to list the TM numbers and sometimes to explain a certain situation, it can<br />

only be submitted through the counter. With this enhancement, when a Form TM26 is<br />

submitted, it allows for a covering letter to be attached to the said form. This is to facilitate<br />

the filing of Form TM26 through eTrademarks.<br />

This eService is already available.<br />

(3) Filing of mark in colour or greyscale<br />

With effect from 1 November 02, eTrademarks will be accepting colour or greyscale<br />

attachments for marks filed for Forms TM4 and TM9 in addition to the current black and<br />

white. Marks filed in colour or greyscale would be printed in greyscale for the<br />

Acknowledgement Letter, Trade Marks Journal and Certificate of Registration. Please note<br />

that viewing and printing of the mark images from the Enquiry System would still be in black<br />

and white.<br />

(4) “Save/Save As” feature<br />

The “Save/Save As” feature has been implemented on 4 December 02, from 10am<br />

onwards. This feature would be available for Forms TM4 and TM9. Any application that is<br />

saved would be kept in IPOS’ system for 3 working days excluding the current day. All<br />

saved documents residing in IPOS’ database for more than 3 working days would be<br />

removed.<br />

(5) Display Mark Image<br />

The “Display Mark Image” feature has been implemented on 4 December 02, from 10am<br />

onwards. Mark images attached to Forms TM4 and TM9 will be displayed for viewing.
