Please note that not all fees are subject to an annual adjustment.
As a result, the amounts shown in the Tariff of Fees of the Trademarks Regulations and the Industrial Design Regulations, both made available to the public by the Department of Justice Canada, may not be up-to-date. However, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office's website and all relevant correspondence issued by the Office will be updated.
Fee adjustments – what fee do I pay?
The fee amount that you must pay for services that are subject to the adjustment will depend on the date on which the fee is received by the Registrar, not the date on which the service was originally requested.
How to determine what fee to pay
For all fees subject to an adjustment:
- If payment is received before January 1 of next year, you will need to pay the prescribed fee for the current year.
- If payment is received on or after January 1 of next year, you will need to pay the adjusted prescribed fee for next year.
For example, if you file an application for the registration of a trademark but a filing date cannot be granted because the prescribed fee was not paid, the amount you need to pay will depend on the date on which the Registrar receives the payment of the entire prescribed fee. If the payment is received after January 1, you will need to pay the adjusted prescribed fee for the new year. Similarly, the amount required for any additional Nice classes also depends on the date on which the payment is received, even if the prescribed fee for the first class of goods or services to which the application relates was paid prior to the annual adjustment. If the payment is received after January 1, you will need to pay the adjusted prescribed fee for the new year.
