STATUS CODES
USPTO trademark status codes: what your code means, and what to do next.
Every US trademark record carries a status code — the clearest signal of what happens next, and whether a deadline is running right now. All 149 codes from the USPTO's published table are below.
640 and 641 are not the same thing
640 means a non-final office action has been counted; 641 means it has been mailed. Only 641 starts your response clock, and plenty of material online has these reversed — acting on that error can cost you the deadline.

All 149 codes above are reproduced from USPTO, Trademark Applications Daily XML DTD Element Documentation, Table 1, with the office's own wording quoted exactly. The USPTO publishes no document that claims to be the complete live list, so this is the most authoritative public table we could find rather than a guaranteed complete one. Plain-English lines are ours. Confirm your own status and dates in TSDR rather than relying on any summary, including this one.
IN DETAIL
The codes people actually search for
These have a full guide of their own. In the table above they carry a Guide tag, and the Full guides filter narrows the table to just them. Every other code is listed with the USPTO's own wording and a plain-English line; where we have not written a guide, we say so rather than padding one out.

HOW THIS LIST WAS BUILT
Where these codes come from
The 149 codes above are reproduced from the status-code table the USPTO publishes with its trademark bulk-data product, and the office's own wording is quoted exactly — including its own spelling and spacing, because a reader comparing this page against their record needs the string the office actually uses. The plain-English lines beside them are ours, and are marked as such.
The USPTO publishes no document that claims to be the complete live list of status values, so this is the most authoritative public table we could find rather than a guaranteed complete one. A number that is not in it gets no invented meaning here: search for it above and the page will tell you plainly that it is not in the published table.
A status code is a summary, not your file. It cannot tell you your deadline, because the date depends on the document, its mailing date and your filing basis. Open the record itself in USPTO TSDR and read the document. If a letter is in front of you and you want the date worked out, the office action deadline finder does that arithmetic.
