H.R. 1505 would prohibit the use of a trademark that is the same as or similar to one used in connection with a business or asset that was confiscated by the government of Cuba. CBO estimates that implementing the bill would increase administrative costs for the Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) by less than $500,000 to review trademark applications for a small number of applicants. However, PTO is authorized to collect fees in amounts sufficient to offset its annual appropriation. Assuming appropriation actions consistent with that authority, CBO estimates that the net increase in discretionary spending for PTO would be negligible.
