The cost of applying for a U.S. barcode depends on a variety of factors, including the type of barcode, the number of barcodes, and whether or not the application is made through an agency. Here are some common expense items:
1.UPC Barcode Application Fee:
For new UPC barcode applications, the fees charged by the USPTO typically include an application fee and an annual fee. The application fee is a one-time payment, while the annual fee is payable annually to ensure the continued validity of the barcode.
2.Number of barcodes purchased:
Applicants have the option to purchase different quantities of barcodes, and the cost usually increases with the number purchased. For example, it would cost more to buy 100 barcodes than to buy 10 barcodes.
3.*Fees:
If you apply through an agency, a percentage of the service fee or a flat fee may apply. This part of the fee will vary according to the pricing policy of the ** institution.
4.Other possible costs:
If you have special needs, such as expedited service, you may incur additional charges.
Additional fees may also be incurred if there are problems with the application process**, such as the need to resubmit documents or deal with objections. Please note that the above information provides a general overview of the fees, and the actual application should be subject to the most recent information and fees provided by the USPTO or ** organization.
