2. Calculation of Registration Costs
 

Example 1: One mark one class
If you want to have your trademark "ABC" registered in Class 25 (clothing, footwear, headgear), that is, one mark one class, the total fees for trademark pre-filing search, registration request and certificate are:


Pre-filing search: USD200
Request for registration: USD800
Final registration/Certificate: USD900
TOTAL: USD1,900


Example 2: Two marks one class
If you want to have your trademarks "ABC" and "DEF" registered in Class 25 (clothing, footwear, headgear), that is, two marks one class, the total fees for trademark pre-filing searches, registration requests and certificates are:


Pre-filing searches: 200 + 200 = USD400
Request for registrations: 800 + 800 = USD1,600
Final registrations/Certificates: 900 + 900 = USD1,800
TOTAL: USD3,800


The costs illustrated in the examples above are based on the assumption of a smooth application, that is, no objection being raised by the JOIPPD or any other third party. Also, the costs stated above exclude courier charges for sending the Power of Attorney and delivery of Certificate of Registration upon acceptance of registration.


It is further assumed that the number of items of products included in each class is no more than 20. Each additional item after the first 20 is charged at a fee of USD10.
