How it works

## Three steps to a clean Germany renewal. 

1

### Diary and reminders

We set up the renewal diary the moment we take on the matter, and send you reminders 12 months, 6 months, and 30 days before the Germany renewal deadline.

2

### Draft and file

Inside the DPMA filing window, our Germany representative drafts and files the renewal, paying the government fee from your retainer or on your authorisation.

3

### Confirmation and next-cycle diary

Once the DPMA confirms the renewal, we deliver the renewal certificate to your client portal and set the diary for the next renewal cycle.

What's included

## Every Germany renewal we file.

A DPMA renewal is filed online via the DPMA portal in the 6-month window before expiry. Renewal extends protection across Germany for the registered Nice classes. German renewal fees are among the higher national-level fees in Europe.

-   DPMA renewal filed online by a German trade mark attorney 
-   6-month pre-expiry filing window managed for you 
-   Per-class fee verification (DPMA charges escalate for class 2 and beyond) 
-   Renewal diary set up for the next 10-year cycle 
-   1 year of post-renewal attorney representation included 

Pricing breakdown

GTC attorney fee, per class $400 

DPMA renewal fee, per class, at cost 895 USD 

Each additional class, GTC fee $260.00 

Each additional class, DPMA fee 310 USD 

Government fees are subject to scheduled adjustments by the DPMA and are passed through at cost.

Why timing matters

## Why Germany renewal timing matters.

### Registration-based, no use declaration required at renewal

DPMA examines renewal payments strictly. Partial payments are rejected outright. The €100 surcharge applies during the 6-month grace; after that the mark is irrecoverable without a fresh application.

### Grace period exists, but it costs

DPMA allows 6-month grace period after expiry with €100 surcharge, but the surcharge is real money, and the registration is technically lapsed during that window. Better to file in the standard window.

### Missed renewal = lost mark

If the Germany grace period also lapses, the mark is cancelled and the date you lose. Any third party can register the same mark from the day after, including in jurisdictions where squatting is endemic.

Senior oversight on strategy and escalations, stepping in as your needs grow, so every important detail stays on track.

A named person, on email or a call, at every step.

    We file your DPMA renewal inside the standard pre-expiry window, well before the deadline.
    
2.  At the deadline 
    
    ### Renewed for the next term
    
    The DPMA records the renewal and your registration continues without a gap in protection.
    
3.  If you run late 
    
    ### Grace period, not a plan
    
    Most registries allow a short grace period after the deadline, with a surcharge and a lapsed registration in the meantime. We aim to file well before it.
    
4.  Ongoing 
    
    ### Next cycle tracked
    
    We diary the next renewal and any mid-term use declaration, so your protection never lapses by surprise.
