Paying For Your Renewal

You will be alerted by email each time before any payments are debited from your bank account. You can view the approximate debit date on the Manage Patent view for each patent.

Renewal Process

Once your payment has cleared, RenewalsDesk will renew the patent. This can involve a number of steps including, for example, the completion and submission of official forms, submission of the patent renewal fee (patent annuity) to the patent office in the correct format and currency, engagement of an agent in the local agent in the nation of renewal where required, and tracking the renewal both internally and with third parties through robust processes. Depending on the country, the exact patent, and whether any complexities are encountered renewal can take from a few days to a number of weeks or months. Payments are taken far enough in advance to allow for eventualities.
