USPTO Official Seal | U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Logo #204272 (License: Personal Use)

This circular seal depicts a bald eagle with outstretched wings, perched atop a shield bearing the U.S. flag’s stars and stripes, holding an olive branch in its right talon and arrows in its left-symbolizing the balance of peace and defense in intellectual property enforcement. Encircling the design are the inscriptions “UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE” and “DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE” in navy blue on a gold-rimmed border. The emblem reflects the agency’s mission to promote innovation and protect intellectual property rights nationwide.

Used on official USPTO documents, websites, press releases, and legal filings; serves as a trust signal for government-authorized IP resources and aligns with user intent seeking authoritative information on patents, trademarks, or federal IP policy.
