What are typical costs for trademark protection across multiple countries?
Trademark protection costs vary significantly depending on whether you use professional services or file directly yourself.
**Professional service costs:** - A quote of £3,000 for multi-country protection (UK, EU, Australia, and USA) was reported by a member, though they questioned whether better rates were available.
**DIY filing costs:** - Filing through the **Madrid Protocol** and the **IPO (UK Intellectual Property Office)** directly can cost approximately £1,500, representing a substantial saving over professional services.
Members indicated that self-filing is feasible and recommended exploring this route if you have the bandwidth to manage the application process yourself.
