Common evidence includes: sales invoices showing trademark usage, product packaging photographs, marketing materials, advertisements, promotional campaigns, website screenshots, or any documentation proving continuous commercial use of the trademark on the registered goods/services.

Evidence should demonstrate continuous usage from the application filing date (or shortly thereafter) until the affidavit filing date. The Registry wants to see consistent, ongoing commercial use – not isolated instances.
