Opposition window closes 24 August 2023. This mark has passed examination and is advertised so that anyone with an earlier right can object. A notice of opposition (Form TM-O) may be filed until that date; after it, the application proceeds to registration and the mark can only be challenged by rectification. Whether an opposition is worth filing depends on how close the marks are and whether the goods overlap: see how opposition works.

What "advertised" means for SMFG

Advertised is not registered. The Registry examined the application, found no bar (or the applicant overcame the objection), and published it. Registration follows only if no opposition is filed within four months, or if an opposition fails. Until the certificate issues, the applicant may use ™ but not ®. Our guide to trademark status meanings explains each stage, and how long registration takes gives realistic timelines.
