Trademark and IP
The fees below are read from the gazette notification that set them, not from the tables circulating online, two of which conflate different forms. Costs scale by class in Pakistan, and the renewal is the largest single fee.
Trademark costs
Every official fee from the gazette, why one class is not the whole bill, and the renewal at Rs 15,000 that almost nobody mentions.
Patent registration
Every official fee from the gazette, the provisional-or-complete choice, the four statutory deadlines, and why Pakistan is outside the PCT.
Copyright registration
Why you register something you already own, the gazette fee for each kind of work, the Form II procedure, and the ownership rules that matter for software.
