UK trade mark renewal: cost, dates and late renewal
A UK registered trade mark must be renewed every 10 years. You can renew in the 6 months before it expires and up to 6 months afterwards. It costs £245 for the first class and £60 for each extra class.
When and how much
| Situation | What applies |
|---|---|
| Up to 6 months before expiry | Renew online: £245 first class, £60 each extra class |
| Up to 6 months after expiry | Renew online, plus a £60 late renewal fee |
| More than 6 months but less than a year after expiry | Request to restore by post, with a written statement explaining why you did not renew on time. £125 of the fee is not refundable if refused. |
You can reduce the number of classes when you renew.
Watch for fake renewal invoices
gov.uk warns that some companies send invoices for trade mark services that look like they come from UKIPO. Do not pay them. Renew through gov.uk or a provider you chose.
Renewal reminders
Every mark we file gets a renewal reminder before the window opens. Our watch service (£12 a month) also checks the weekly Trade Marks Journal for marks close to yours.
