Algeria: registering a trademark costs an estimated US$920 for one class, plus US$120 for each further class. Algeria is a member of the Madrid System, so a trademark can be filed with its office directly or extended to Algeria through an international registration. Algeria is a leading import market for paints (class 2) and tobacco and smokers' articles (class 34).
Figures by trademark class count branded goods only: raw commodities that are traded mostly without brands - such as gold bars, fuel, bulk chemicals, grain and fabric by the metre - are left out. Hong Kong, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates are left out of the rankings, as much of their trade is re-exported.
Goods where Algeria is among the world's 3 largest exporters, has at least 15% of world exports, or that make up at least 25% of its own exports - of at least US$500m a year.
Our estimate is about US$920 for one class, from filing to registration: about US$126 in official fees and about US$794 in professional (law firm) fees. Each further class adds about US$120. Responses to office actions and oppositions are not included. These are estimates only: the actual cost depends on the law firm and the application.
