Manage your intellectual properties in Brand Registry!
Hello Sellers!
Are you familiar with how to manage your intellectual properties in Brand Registry?
In this post, we will introduce two features to help you manage your intellectual properties (IP) after enrolling your brand in Brand Registry.
1. Add additional trademarks to your brand
You can add additional trademarks for currently-enrolled brands, if they are issued by an accepted trademark office, use the same trademark name, and are an accepted mark type. To do so, follow these steps.
- Sign into Brand Registry
- Click Manage and select Manage Intellectual Property. If you have more than one brand enrolled in Brand Registry, select the appropriate brand name from the drop-down menu.
- Click Connect a trademark.
- Enter the required trademark information and click Connect trademark.
Once we’ve processed your request, you’ll receive an email with an approval notice or a reason for rejecting the additional trademark. If the request has been approved, the trademark will appear under the Connected tab. If the request has been rejected, the trademark will remain under the Request tab.
2. Update Your Trademark Status
If you joined Brand Registry using a trademark application that was pending, but it has now been officially registered with the trademark office, please visit the ‘Manage Intellectual Property' section to verify your trademark status. If this status change is not reflected, you now have the option to refresh your trademark's status within Brand Registry.
If you need to update the status of your trademark, follow these steps:
- Sign in to Brand Registry
- Click Support and select Contact Brand Support
- Select Update your trademark status from the drop-down menu
- Enter the required trademark information and click Send
Who may use the tool?
The Update Your Trademark Status feature is available to all users with protection roles. Visit Brand Registry protection roles page to learn more about roles.

hi Sandy
i definitely have questions on IP policy
from the amazon policy I understand that a seller can use a trademarked name or term if its used in its ordinary dictionary meaning to describe the product
Well I have done just that and my account was shut down and seems like any appeals arent accepted
my account was deactivated bc the title and description which used alice in wonderland is its dictionary noun meaning was flagged for violating IP policy
account health keeps telling me to show brand authorization from alice in wonderland
We dont use that brand at all in terms of their assets
That brand just trademarked that name of an 1800ss fictional character and now my account was flagged as violating IP policy
I cant seem to appeal to show that I have following amazon IP policy bc I keep getting a standard cut and paste reply that I need to show brand authorization
My original post here: account deactivated for using dictionary meaning that is trademarked
Can you help here?

Hurry and sign up so China can hack your product and you're listing. Brand registry is a con perpetrated by amazon.
