Anatomy](/assets/bare-anatomy-CBhgu9Ro.webp "Bare Anatomy")![Freedom](/assets/freedom-confectionery-HioHiGYc.webp "Freedom") How it works ## Three steps to a clean Japan 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 Japan renewal deadline. 2 ### Draft and file Inside the JPO filing window, our Japan 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 JPO 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 Japan renewal we file. A JPO renewal is filed by a benrishi in the 6-month window before expiry. The 10-year renewal can be paid in full or split (5-year + 5-year), at the holder's choice. Renewal extends protection across Japan for the registered classes and similar-group codes. - JPO renewal filed by a JPAA-registered benrishi (patent/trademark attorney) - 10-year vs 5-year split-payment decision support - 6-month pre-expiry window managed end-to-end - Similar-group code review before renewal. Narrow or maintain coverage - Renewal diary set up for the next renewal cycle Pricing breakdown GTC attorney fee, per class $650 JPO renewal fee, per class, at cost 420 USD Each additional class, JPO fee 420 USD Government fees are subject to scheduled adjustments by the JPO and are passed through at cost. [Renew My Japan trademark](/forms/catalog/trademarks-brands/trademark-renewal/JP?ref=b2c) Why timing matters ## Why Japan renewal timing matters. ### Registration-based. Renewal must be filed within 6 months before expiry JPO renewal fees are among the highest among major registries (¥38,800/class for the 10-year). The 5-year split option spreads the cost and reduces commitment if the brand is being phased out, but doubles the administrative work. ### Grace period exists, but it costs JPO allows 6-month grace period after expiry with double-fee 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 Japan 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.
