How much does a US trademark application cost?
USPTO filing fees are generally assessed by class. Intent-to-use filings may also involve later statement-of-use or extension fees, so the application fee is not always the full official cost.

Confirm three things before budgeting
Target market: the US, EU, UK, and multi-country routes use different official fee structures.
Class count: trademarks are usually priced by goods or services classes, so multiple classes increase the budget.
Filing basis and mark format: US intent-to-use filings and Madrid color marks can add official fees.
Common fee questions
How trademark filing costs differ by route
How are EU trademark fees calculated?
EUIPO uses a tiered class structure: the first, second, and later classes are not priced in the same way. Estimate by class count, then confirm the latest EUIPO schedule.
What changes the cost of a UK trademark?
Filing method and class count affect UKIPO fees. Opposition, corrections, professional services, and later proceedings sit outside the basic application estimate.
Why is there no single Madrid System price?
Madrid fees depend on the basic fee, class scope, and the members designated. Each country or region can change the total, so WIPO's official calculator remains the final reference.
