EGIPA INTRODUCES INCREASED OFFICIAL FEES
The Egyptian Intellectual Property Authority (EGIPA) has implemented increased official fees and additional service charges for trade mark related procedures under Decisions Nos. 64 and 65 of 2026. Effective from 5 March 2026, the changes apply to services administered by the Trade Mark Office, including searches, filings and renewals. Rights holders are advised to take these increases into account when planning trademark filings and managing portfolios in Egypt.
Our Egypt focused IP team can advise on the revised fee structure, assist with cost effective filing strategies, and support the ongoing management of trademark portfolios before the Egyptian Trade Mark Office.
