Looking at Trademarkia? Compare what you’ll actually pay.
Most trademark filing services advertise a professional fee — the government’s filing fee is added at checkout. We quote one number with everything in it.
US trademark filing — the real math
| Advertised price | USPTO govt fee (1 class) | What you actually pay | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical filing service* | from $499 (professional fee only) | + $350 | $849+ |
| SimplySetup | $499 all-in | included | $499 |
*Structure observed on major filing-service websites, including trademarkia.com, as of July 2026. Prices and terms change — always verify a provider’s current pricing and what it includes before you buy. USPTO base application fee is $350 per class; surcharges apply for free-form goods descriptions, which we avoid by using the USPTO’s pre-approved ID Manual.
The bigger difference: what happens after you pay
The filing fee is rarely where trademark services make their money. Industry-wide, the pattern buyers complain about most is the post-sale bill: office-action responses quoted at $1,000–2,000 after you’re already committed, abandonment and revival fees, and monitoring subscriptions you didn’t knowingly sign up for. Our approach is simple: every follow-on service has a published flat price before you ever file, and nothing renews without you asking for it.

Beyond the US
The same all-in model applies across our other filing countries: India $149, Singapore $499, Hong Kong $699 — government fees included, one class, word or logo mark. If you’re building a brand across markets, we’ll tell you honestly where we are and aren’t the cheapest option, and what we include that cheaper filings don’t.
One price. Government fees in. No ambush.
Free conflict check first — if your mark has a problem, we’ll tell you before you spend anything.
