Turkish Trademark Registration Fees 2026: Official Fee + VAT + Attorney Fee — A Transparent Calculation
Under the TÜRKPATENT 2026 fee schedule, a single-class trademark filing fee is ₺2,820 and the registration certificate ₺7,010. How attorney fees, VAT and KOSGEB support work — a transparent calculation.
In the market you see two kinds of trademark-fee advertising: those saying "₺1,300 for trademark registration" and those promising "transparent pricing". This article shows the real numbers behind the second group: TÜRKPATENT's 2026 fee schedule, the attorney fee, VAT, and the KOSGEB Trademark Registration Support — step by step.
Official fees — 2026 schedule
The 2026 TÜRKPATENT fee schedule (Official Gazette 31.12.2025 Issue 32420 bis) defines four main fees for trademark registration:
| Item | Amount (VAT excluded) |
|---|---|
| Filing fee (1st class) | ₺2,820 |
| Additional class fee (2nd class) | ₺2,820 |
| Additional class fee (3+ classes) | ₺3,150 / class |
| Registration certificate fee | ₺7,010 |
Minimum total for a single class: 2,820 + 7,010 = ₺9,830.
Two classes: 2,820 + 2,820 + 7,010 = ₺12,650.
Three classes: 2,820 + 2,820 + 3,150 + 7,010 = ₺15,800.
These fees are official and not subject to VAT (exempted under VAT Code art. 17).
Attorney fee
Official fees + attorney fee = total cost. The attorney-fee market is not transparent; at the low end you see "trademark registration for ₺1,300" advertisements — a number lower than the official fee itself. At the upper end, ₺5,000–15,000 is a reasonable range for a standard single-class file.
At Asil we publish transparent bands: standard, express, defence-inclusive. A binding quote is only given after a consultation specific to your file, because the following are file-specific:
- Pre-search risk (a high-risk mark must include defence preparation)
- Class-selection advice
- Prior-use right check
- Word mark vs. figurative vs. combination
"Trademark registration for ₺1,300" — is it real?
No. The official fee alone is ₺2,820. A ₺1,300 offer typically means:
- Half-service: filing only; no defence, no opposition response, no renewal reminder.
- Hidden surcharges: "an additional fee for this document", "an additional consultation for this defence" during the process.
- Invalid filing: wrong classification, no pre-search. When refused, the fee is not refunded.
Asil does not compete in that segment.
VAT — applied only to the attorney fee
The 2026 VAT rate is 20%. Official TÜRKPATENT fees are outside VAT. VAT applies only to the attorney fee.
Example: single-class trademark, attorney fee ₺8,000:
- Official fee: ₺9,830 (VAT excluded)
- Attorney fee: ₺8,000 + VAT 20% = ₺9,600
- Total: ₺19,430
KOSGEB Trademark Registration Support
Firms registered in the SME database can recover a portion of the official fees and attorney costs by applying to KOSGEB for each registered trademark. The annual cap and reimbursement rate are published by KOSGEB; the typical reimbursement is 50–75% for a domestic registration.
At Asil we prepare the KOSGEB file in parallel with your application. There is no additional paperwork on the client side.
Renewal — what happens after 10 years?
A trademark registration is valid for 10 years. The renewal fee is updated annually via the Official Gazette. Under SMK art. 23, renewal is possible:
- Final 6 months (standard): before the protection term ends
- Additional 6 months (penalty): after the term ends
If this window passes, the trademark right is lost.
