Why our filing fees are so competitive

Your firm provides the application details through our Filing Portal. Structured data reduces manual re-entry, the risk of data transfer errors and routine correspondence, allowing us to offer competitive fixed fees for a clearly defined filing service.

Your firm manages the client relationship. We handle the German or EU filing and provide reports and documents. Official fees and additional services are shown separately.

Straightforward instructions

Attorney handling

Your application is handled by a German patent attorney practice. We file with the selected office and report on filing and registration.

Communication in your preferred language

We communicate with your firm in English or German and provide a translation into your preferred language. Official communications are supplied with a translation into English or your preferred language, ready to forward to your client. These translations are included in the applicable service fees.
