Certain regions in Africa require excess claim fees as well as other surcharges and renewal fees may also be required, and would be payable upon filing a patent application or for pending patent applications. The patent filing cost estimate that you get from filling in our form caters for the various extra fees that may be necessary for a patent application in the specified region.

These costs include professional fees, official fees, renewal fees (if applicable) and surcharges.
With our patent application quoting form you can also select the type of application you require. The most common application type is a PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty) national phase application, however this form also caters for convention applications, amongst others. Certain application types may not be relevant to all regions in Africa; it is therefore essential to get a patent cost estimate based on your specifications.
