International Trademark registration
The cost of expanding your trademark registration to cover other countries depends on a number of factors, such as the number of classes, the countries and whether the trademark is in colour. You can calculate the fees yourself using the WIPO fee calculator. WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization) is the official body that administers the register of international trademarks. The organization is based in Switzerland, which is why the fees in the calculator are given in Swiss francs.
