USPTO May Reduce FQA Paperwork
USPTO May Reduce FQA Paperwork
Jason Sandefur
The U.S. Patent & Trademark Office seeks input to reduce paperwork for fastener insignia registration required by the Fastener Quality Act. Currently, fastener manufacturers covered by FQA must submit an application to record insignias on the USPTO�s Fastener Insignia Register available at the agency�s website, uspto.gov. USPTO estimates the annual cost per company, including labor, filing fees and postage, totals $4,254.
