In accordance with Ministerial Decision No. 1448/2025, the Syrian Trademark Office has officially enacted a major increase in publication fees for trademarks and industrial designs. The newly introduced fee structure took effect immediately upon issuance.
Under the new regulation, certain publication fees have surged dramatically some rising to 50-fold, while others increased by a factor of 10. These adjustments apply not only to newly filed applications but also to all pending cases for which the publication fees have not yet been settled.
This development marks a substantial shift in the cost landscape for IP rights holders and applicants in Syria.
