How much is the patent application fee in Shanghai?

With the rapid development of modern science and technology, science and technology have made great contributions to social development and national economic construction. In recent years, the state has also given strong support to the development of science and technology. To this end, the state has also introduced some policies to ensure the intellectual labor results created by these inventors who have contributed to science and technology. Among them, the invention patent is a representative one, and the inventor needs to apply to the patent office for this technical scheme to obtain the patent right. So how much does it cost to apply for a patent in Shanghai? 1. What is a patent application? Patent application is a necessary procedure for obtaining patent right. To obtain a patent right, the applicant shall file an application with the State Patent Office, which shall approve and issue a certificate. When filing a patent application with the State Patent Office, the applicant shall also submit a series of application documents, such as the request, specification, abstract and patent claim. Patent application usually has the following two meanings: 1. It refers to the necessary procedures for obtaining a patent right. An invention-creation must be submitted by the applicant to a government department (in China, at present, China National Intellectual Property Administration, the People's Republic of China), and the patent right can only be obtained after being examined and approved by People's Republic of China (PRC) and China National Intellectual Property Administration according to legal procedures. In China, there are currently three types of inventions, namely, inventions, utility models and designs. 2, refers to the state of having applied for a patent but not yet obtained a patent right. 2. Application fee: The application fee shall be paid within two months from the date of application. The fees paid at the same time as the application fee also include the publication and printing fee of the application for a patent for invention and the application surcharge. Where the priority is claimed, the priority claim fee shall be paid at the same time. If it is not paid or paid in full within the prescribed time limit, the patent application shall be deemed to have been withdrawn. When the number of pages in the description (including drawings) exceeds 30 pages or the number of claims exceeds 10, an application surcharge shall be paid, and the amount shall be calculated according to the number of pages or items exceeded. The amount of priority claim fee is calculated according to the number of items claiming priority. Failing to pay or pay in full within the prescribed time limit shall be deemed as not claiming priority. (1) Invention: the application fee is 900, the document printing fee is 50, the specification surcharge is 50 from 3 1 page, the claim surcharge is 30 1 page, and the priority claim fee is 80 (2) from1/kloc. Utility model: the application fee is 900, the specification surcharge is 50 from 3 1 page, the claim surcharge is 30 1 page, and the priority claim fee is 80 (3) from 1 1 item. Design: the application fee is 900, the specification surcharge is from page 365438 +0, and each page is 50 from page 3065438 +0, 100. The claim surcharge is from item 65438 +0 1, and the priority claim fee is 150, and the substantive examination fee for 80 invention patent applications is 250. If the patent applicant or patentee meets one of the following conditions, he may request China National Intellectual Property Administration to reduce or exempt some patent fees: a. Individuals whose average monthly income in the previous year was less than 3,500 yuan (42,000 yuan per year); B enterprises with taxable income of less than 300,000 yuan in the previous year; C institutions, social organizations and non-profit scientific research institutions. Where two or more individuals or units are the same patent applicant or patentee, they shall abide by the provisions of the preceding paragraph respectively. The patent applicant or patentee may request to reduce the following patent fees: application fee (excluding publication and printing fee and application surcharge), substantive examination fee for an application for a patent for invention, annual fee and reexamination fee for six years from the date of being granted the patent right. If the patent applicant or patentee is a single individual or unit, the above expenses will be reduced by 85%. If two or more individuals or units are * * * the same patent applicant or * * * patentee, 70% of the above fees will be reduced or exempted. Based on the above, the patent application fee in Shanghai can be calculated according to the listed standards, and should be differentiated according to the type of patent applied by the inventor. Because there are a lot of materials needed to apply for a patent, people who have not applied can also entrust a special patent agent to apply, which is also a relatively safe way. As for the agency fee, it needs to be paid according to the charging standard of each patent office.
