Trademark Fee Guide

Understanding Trademark Filing Fees

Trademarks are classified into 45 different classes, and each class covers a specific range of goods or services. The total cost of a trademark application depends on the number of classes you choose to protect.

The Taiwan figures cover the quoted official and service fees for a straightforward application and registration. Objections, oppositions and other additional procedures are excluded.

Fee Calculation Example

For one Taiwan trademark in one class, the current quoted fees are:

Taiwan — Application NTD 4,800
NTD 4,800 × 1 class
Taiwan — Registration NTD 3,000
NTD 3,000 × 1 class
