Form 903—Instructions
(Assignment of a Trade or Service Mark)
The attached form is designed to meet minimal statutory filing requirements pursuant to the
relevant code provisions. The form and the information provided are not substitutes for the advice and
services of an attorney.
General Information
A trademark or service mark registered in Texas is assignable with the goodwill of the business in which
the mark is used, or with that part of the goodwill of the business connected with the use of, and
symbolized by, the mark. The assignment of registered marks is accomplished under the authority of
section 16.061, Texas Business and Commerce Code. An assignment may be made only by a duly
executed written instrument.
Assignment Void if not Recorded. The assignment of a registered mark registered is void against a
purchaser who purchases the mark for valuable consideration after the assignment is made and without
notice of it unless the assignment is recorded by the secretary of state:
(1) not later than the 90th day after the date of the assignment; or
(2) before the mark is purchased.
Effect of Assignment. When an assignment is properly filed, the secretary of state will issue a certificate
of registration in the assignee’s name for the remainder of the mark’s registration period or last renewal.
If the assignment cannot be filed before the registration term expires, a new application for registration
must be made.
