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.
Most official fees are reduced by 50% for applicants who are natural persons.
If you plan to file or have pending applications with due dates in 2025, consider delaying fee payments until after 1 January 2025 to take advantage of the new rates.
Please contact our patent attorneys Erik Viik or Linda Norrgård for any questions.
