How much does an EU trade mark cost?

EUIPO charges EUR 850 for the first class, EUR 50 for the second class and EUR 150 for each further class when filing online. Attorney fees are separate and typically range from EUR 500 to EUR 1,800.

Does one EU trade mark cover every member state?

Yes. A single EU trade mark (EUTM) registration is unitary and enforceable across all EU member states, which is usually far cheaper than filing nationally in each country.

Do I need an EU representative to file?

Applicants domiciled outside the EEA must be represented before the EUIPO by a qualified professional representative or an EEA-established legal practitioner.
