Significant reduction in Uzbek Patent Office fees starting 1 January 2025 

From 1 January 2025, official fees at the Uzbek Patent Office will decrease substantially. This change comes as part of Uzbekistan’s efforts to meet World Trade Organization (WTO) requirements, leading to a comprehensive review of its legislation. The new fee schedule applies to patents, utility models, designs, and trademarks, with the same fees now set for foreign applicants and Uzbek nationals.
