Iran (Islamic Republic of): registering a trademark costs an estimated US$1,640 for one class, plus US$392 for each further class. Iran (Islamic Republic of) is a member of the Madrid System, so a trademark can be filed with its office directly or extended to Iran (Islamic Republic of) through an international registration. Iran (Islamic Republic of) is a leading import market for medical apparatus (class 10) and machines (class 7).
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.
Our estimate is about US$1,640 for one class, from filing to registration: about US$23 in official fees and about US$1,616 in professional (law firm) fees. Each further class adds about US$392. Responses to office actions and oppositions are not included. These are estimates only: the actual cost depends on the law firm and the application.
