Inside a TMview record: ST13 number, Nice classes, Vienna codes and the owner block
Every entry is keyed by an ST13 identifier: a two-letter office code followed by fifteen digits, such as EM500000018961104 for an EUIPO filing or US500000085933071 for a USPTO one. The mark image and the detail page both hang off that same string, so it is the join key for a TMview data set and the one value that survives when an office renumbers its own files. The application number carried inside it is not normalised: EUIPO zero-pads to nine digits, the USPTO keeps a bare serial, the UK office prefixes UK00 and CNIPA runs its own eight-digit series.
A result row carries the mark name, the office, the designated territory, application and registration numbers, status, Nice classes, applicant name, filing, registration and expiry dates, the mark type and the mark image. The detail view opens the rest of the file: kind of mark, application language and second language, application reference, an acquired distinctiveness flag, goods and services wording per Nice class, Vienna classification codes with their descriptions, the owner block with identifier, nationality code, legal entity, street, city and postcode, the representative block, a publication table of date, publication identifier and section, and separate blocks for priority, exhibition priority, seniority, transformation of an international registration, opposition, recordals, appeals, cancellations and renewals. Labels carry the INID numbers examiners quote - 550 for mark type, 220 for filing date, 151 for registration, 141 for expiry, 190 for the registration office, 841 and 842 for applicant nationality and legal form.
What is missing matters more than what is there. An EUIPO file fills nearly every block; a CNIPA one can arrive with mark type Undefined, no Vienna code and goods and services only in the original Chinese; USPTO entries pad Nice classes to three digits and keep American drafting inside the goods text, square brackets and filing-basis notes included; a French mark that has ended may carry no registration number at all. Statuses run Filed, Registered, Expired and Ended, and mark types include word, figurative, combined, 3D shape, colour, sound, hologram, motion and multimedia. Owners are usually companies and sometimes private individuals.
