What are the fees for filing a trademark application?
Filing fees vary on a country-by-country basis and usually increase depending on the number of classes that are covered by the application. In addition to the initial filing fees, additional fees may be incurred prior to the issuance of a certificate of registration. For example, if using local counsel, fees for preparing the application will be incurred. Some countries require the payment of publication and registration fees. In countries in which use of a mark must be shown before an application will issue to registration, there will be fees associated with filing affidavits of use if evidence of use was not submitted with the initial application.
