These changes have been established from the review IP Australia has conducted over the past 19 months, including feedback received from public consultation. The changes have been carefully designed based on this feedback and in accordance with the Australian Government Charging Framework and the relevant Productivity Commission recommendations. Thank you to our customers who have contributed to this review.

We encourage you to familiarise yourself with the new fee arrangements for IP Australia’s products and services. A list ofthe fee changes can be viewed on our website.

根据澳大利亚知识产权局2020年8月7日发布的通知，澳大利亚商标申请的官费即将上涨，预计上涨幅度在20%左右，此次上涨会影响到直接在澳大利亚申请的商标费用以及通过马德里体系方式在澳大利亚申请商标。其中直接在澳大利亚申请商标价格会在2020年10月1日后采用新的收费标准，马德里体系方式在澳大利亚申请商标会在2020年11月上旬采取新的收费标准。

关于海外商标申请过程中，可能存在费用变化，主要原因分为几个部分：

1、因为汇率发生的波动。

2、因为案件情况发生的变动。

3、因为外放成本发生的变动。
