The Russian Federation: registering a trademark costs an estimated US$1,068 for one class, plus US$212 for each further class. The Russian Federation is a member of the Madrid System, so a trademark can be filed with its office directly or extended to the Russian Federation through an international registration. The Russian Federation is a leading import market for hand tools (class 8) and wines and spirits (class 33). It is also one of the world's leading exporters of crude oil and coal.
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 Russian Federation 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$1,068 for one class, from filing to registration: about US$418 in official fees and about US$650 in professional (law firm) fees. Each further class adds about US$212. Responses to office actions and oppositions are not included. These are estimates only: the actual cost depends on the law firm and the application.
