USPTO Fees Will Increase on Jan 18, 2025

The United States Patent & Trademark Office has approved an increase in filing fees that becomes effective on Jan 18, 2025. The USPTO is increasing fees for trademark applications, post-registration maintenance fees, intent-to-use fees, and petitions and letters of protest fees. The USPTO lists some of the fee increases here.

In addition, the USPTO is adding a new fee for applications that are incomplete, or that use a free-form identification for goods or services.
