# §92.73. Services in connection with trademark registrations.

- (a) **Authority and responsibility.** Acknowledgments and oaths required in connection with applications for registration of trademarks may be made, in a foreign country, before any diplomatic or consular officer of the United States or before any official authorized to administer oaths in the foreign country whose authority must be proved by a certificate of a diplomatic or consular officer of the United States ([15 U.S.C. 1061](/usc/15/1061.md)). The responsibility of officers of the Foreign Service in this connection is the same as that where notarial services in connection with patent applications are involved (see [§ 92.72(a)](/cfr/22/92.72.md?p=a)). (See [§ 92.72(c)](/cfr/22/92.72.md?p=c) regarding the authentication of the authority of a foreign official who performs a notarial service in connection with a patent application.)
- (b) **Fees.** The fee for administering an oath, taking an acknowledgment, or supplying an authentication, in connection with an application for registration of a trademark, or with the assignment or transfer of rights thereunder, is as prescribed in item 49 of the Tariff of Fees, Foreign Service of the United States of America ([§ 22.1](/cfr/22/22.1.md) of this chapter).
