How is the TÜRKPATENT fee schedule determined?
The Turkish Patent and Trademark Office (TÜRKPATENT) sets its transaction fees each year through a communiqué published in the Official Gazette. The 2026 schedule entered into force with Communiqué No. 2026/1, published in the fifth repeated issue (mükerrer) of Official Gazette No. 33124 dated December 31, 2025; some items were then amended by Communiqué No. 2026/2, published in Official Gazette No. 33416 dated October 31, 2026. Because the schedule can change during the year, it is necessary to check the current table on the Office's fee pages before making a payment.
The amounts in this article were compiled from the fee pages on TÜRKPATENT's website on November 14, 2026. We have summarized the article in our own words; for exact amounts, we recommend consulting the official sources at the end of the page.
How should the fee table be read?
- Code number: The first two digits of the code in the schedule indicate the type of right: 01 patent and utility model, 02 trademark, 03 geographical indication and traditional product name, 04 design, 05 re-examination and opposition, 06 attorney register transactions.
- Total amount: In the patent table, the fee, VAT, and duty are shown in separate columns and the total amount is stated separately. The tables below give the total amounts.
- Official fee ≠ service fee: Only the amounts paid to the Office appear here. The fee for file preparation, consulting, and follow-up services is determined separately.

Note: TÜRKPATENT's patent fee page does not state the year of the table; the amounts for the items shared with the 2026 table on the utility model page (application, document issuance, assignment, license) are the same.

Opposition and re-examination fees
There is a separate schedule for appeals and oppositions against the Office's decisions and publications (code 05): an appeal against a trademark decision is 2.720 TL; an appeal or opposition against a decision or publication concerning a geographical indication or traditional product name is 1.010 TL; an opposition to the publication of a design registration is 320 TL per design; and an opposition to the publication of a decision to grant a patent is 5.180 TL. For the opposition to be examined, the fee must be paid within the opposition period.
Sample budgets (official fees only)
- Single-class trademark: 2.820 + 7.010 = 9.830 TL.
- Two-class trademark: 2.820 + 2.820 + 7.010 = 12.650 TL.
- Three-class trademark: 2.820 + 2.820 + 3.150 + 7.010 = 15.800 TL.
- Patent (general rate, excluding annual fees): 620 + 5.180 + 5.180 + 3.800 = 14.780 TL.
- Patent (natural person rate, excluding annual fees): 620 + 2.530 + 2.530 + 3.800 = 9.480 TL.
- Utility model (natural person rate, excluding annual fees): 620 + 2.530 + 3.800 = 6.950 TL.
- Geographical indication (application and registration): 550 + 820 = 1.370 TL.
These calculations are examples based on the current schedule; in trademark applications, the special-case lines in the schedule, in patents the annual fees, and in designs the total publication area affect the total. For your own file, we can work out the exact budget together in a preliminary consultation.
