The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) will replace the previous Electronic Trademark Transfer System (ETAS) and Electronic Patent Transfer System (EPAS) with a new generation of unified transfer system IPAS starting from January 15, 2024.

This new system will provide users with comprehensive information support by processing all patent and trademark transfer requests. A transfer request records a transfer or change of ownership in a patent or trademark holder's pending or granted application or registration. In addition, IPAS has also strengthened customer service, and USPTO staff will track the status of customer requests, record data and issue reports through the cloud system.
