The registration fee for a trademark is \u20ac300 for up to three classes. Each additional class costs \u20ac100. If you file the application electronically, the basic fee is reduced to \u20ac290.<\/p>\n
Choosing the right classes is crucial not only from a cost perspective. There is a mandatory use requirement, meaning you must actually use the trademark in the selected classes to maintain trademark protection. Furthermore, selecting multiple classes will increase the examination and processing time.<\/p>\n
The following fees apply for trademark registration with the DPMA:<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Basic fee (for 3 classes)<\/strong>: 300 \u20ac (for electronic registration: 290 \u20ac)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
Additional classes<\/strong>: 100 \u20ac per class<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

After you submit your trademark application to the German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA), it will undergo a thorough examination. However, the DPMA only checks whether there are any absolute grounds for refusal that could prevent the trademark from being registered. The examination is based on the following criteria:<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Is the trademark protectable?<\/strong>
The trademark must be distinctive and must not contain purely descriptive or generic terms.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Were the formal registration criteria met?<\/strong>
The DPMA checks whether the application complies with all legal requirements and whether all necessary information has been submitted correctly.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Is there a risk of misleading or deceptive consumers?<\/strong>
The trademark must not be misleading or mislead the consumer. The German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA) investigates whether the trademark could in any way lead to consumer deception.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Does the trademark violate any laws or morality?<\/strong>
The trademark must be in accordance with applicable law and common decency.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nIf the DPMA encounters deficiencies during the examination, such as a lack of distinctive character or an obvious risk of misleading, the entrepreneur will be informed of the objections. If the entrepreneur fails to respond or correct the deficiencies, the trademark application will be rejected.<\/p>\n

If there are no objections or if the entrepreneur successfully resolves them, the trademark is registered in the German Patent and Trademark Register (DPMA). With this registration, the trademark receives legal protection, and the entrepreneur acquires the exclusive right to use the trademark.<\/p>\n
In addition to registration, the new trademark will be published in the German Patent and Trademark Office's public trademark gazette to inform the public about existing trademark rights. This publication gives other companies or individuals the opportunity to file an opposition to the trademark if they believe their own rights are infringed by the trademark.<\/p>\n

After the trademark has been published in the DPMA's Trademark Gazette, owners of older trademarks or competing trademarks have the opportunity to file an opposition against the registered trademark. The DPMA does not examine whether existing intellectual property rights are infringed, which is why oppositions are based on so-called relative grounds for refusal, which can arise in the following cases:<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
There are already older, identical brands.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
The risk of confusion with older trademarks is too high.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Objection period of 3 months<\/strong>
After the trademark is published, third parties have three months to file an opposition to the application. If the opposition is successful, the trademark will be cancelled and the trademark application will be declared invalid. It is important to note that trademark registration fees are non-refundable in this case.<\/p>\nTrademark protection for 10 years<\/strong>
After successful registration, trademark protection lasts for ten years and can then be renewed for a fee to maintain trademark protection in the long term.<\/p>\nMake trademark registration legally secure<\/strong>: Let me professionally guide you through the entire registration process and avoid potential disputes.

\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTrademark protection for a registered trademark is initially valid for ten years from the date of application to the Trademark Office. After this period, businesses have the option of renewing the trademark protection \u2013 but for a fee based on the number of classes for which the trademark was originally registered.<\/p>\n
Renewing your brand \u2013 What you should consider<\/strong>
To maintain your trademark protection beyond the initial ten years, you will need to pay a renewal fee. This fee varies depending on the number of classes of goods and services included in the application. Make sure you apply for renewal in a timely manner to ensure the continued validity of your trademark.<\/p>\nBeware of scammers!<\/strong>
After registering your trademark, you may receive mail from third parties offering payment requests or supposedly necessary services related to trademark registration. Be careful! Only respond to official mail from the German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA) or the EUIPO, and consult a lawyer if in doubt. Avoid responding to unauthorized offers to prevent fraud.<\/p>\nOur trademark law firm supports you<\/strong> Not only in registering and monitoring your trademark, but also in renewing it. I ensure that your trademark protection always remains up to date. Contact me for a legally compliant trademark renewal!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
