On July 2, 2019, the Brazilian Government deposited with WIPO the declaration indicating that Brazil wishes to receive an individual fee when it is designated in an international application, in a designation subsequent to an international registration and in respect of the renewal of an international registration in which Brazil has been designated (Article 8(7)(a) of the Madrid Protocol).
Together with that declaration, the Brazilian has notified WIPO that the individual fee in respect of a designation of Brazil is to be paid in two parts (Rule 34(3)(a) of the Common Regulations).
Those amounts will be:
105 Swiss francs (first part) and 188 Swiss francs (second part) for each class of goods or services, when designating Brazil in an international application or subsequently;
269 Swiss francs for each class of goods or services, when renewing an international registration in which Brazil has been designated; 406 Swiss francs where the payment is received within the period of grace.
This declaration shall have effect on October 2, 2019.
The BPTO, on the other hand, has not published the official fees for an international registration based on a Brazilian application or registration yet.
