 Trademark Application Fee
Trademark application fee includes an official fee to be paid with Patent Office and a service fee to be paid to a legal representative (i.e., patent attorney). If one is going through trademark application procedures from filing to registration without any help of patent attorney, only official fee is needed to be paid. Whereas, if the prosecutions are conducted with the help of a patent attorney, both the official fee and attorney service fee need to be paid.
Official Fee
Basic filing fee for trademark application is 56,000 KRW (Korean Won) for each class. And registration fee covering 10 years is 211,000KRW for a single class. For every additional class, 211,000KRW is added.
No exemption of official fee is allowed for trademark application unlike patent or design applications. More details of official fees can be referred in the following website. http://www.patent.go.kr/jsp/ka/menu/fee/main/FeeMain01.jsp Attorney Service Fee
Attorney service fee is paid for professional works done by patent law firm for prosecution of trademark application. V.A.T is usually added to the attorney service fee. The attorney service fee is categorized as application filing fee, responding fee to Office Actions and contingent fee.
