How Much Does Trademark Registration Cost?

How much does trademark registration cost? The first factor that affects the fee is the number of classes. Under the international Nice Classification, businesses register trademarks for specific groups of goods or services. Each class carries a specific fee. In 2025, the TPE fee for a single class is 2,350 TL. When more than one class is selected, the fee rises. The number of classes a company needs for protection directly affects the total trademark registration fee.

Whether the application is filed individually or through an agent also matters. Using an agent adds a service fee. The choice of filing method needs careful thought. TÜRKPATENT fees can change, so staying current is important. Contact us.

What Are the Additional Trademark Registration Costs?

The registration process is not limited to the application fees alone; it brings several additional costs. Owners should plan budgets around the total. Beyond the application fee, there are costs for renewal, agent services, and opposition proceedings. Trademark searches also carry a cost.

The trademark application is filed for a specific fee. After that, renewal fees must be paid at set intervals to keep the registered mark protected. Renewal fees need to be paid before the registration period expires. Renewal runs in 10-year cycles and varies by the number of classes.

Professional agent and consulting services are also common during registration. These services help resolve legal issues that come up during the process, so the applicant is spared the hassle. The cost of agent services depends on the agent's experience and the scope of the work.

Finally, opposition proceedings against a trademark registration can add significant cost. If the application faces opposition, there are additional expenses for defense and counter-action. Given all of these costs, registration is essential for owners, and a solid financial plan keeps the mark protected.
