The Auxiliary Directory is a secondary directory maintained by the USPTO for trademarks that do not meet the requirements for registration on the Main Directory but still possess a certain level of distinctiveness or potential for protection. Although it does not offer the same extent of advantages as the Main Directory, registration on the Auxiliary Directory can provide limited protection for trademarks and certain enforcement benefits. (Find out more information about the advantages of registering your trademark on the Auxiliary Directory here).
