Trademark revocation applications are charged according to category, and the trademark revocation fee for one category is RMB 1,000. If a trademark agency is entrusted to handle the matter, the Trademark Office will deduct the fee from the advance payment of the trademark agency. Therefore, in specific cases, the relevant parties need to collect fees reasonably based on the actual situation, but consultation is still required when handling the problem.

Trademark withdrawal refers to a trademark that has not been used for three consecutive years without justifiable reasons. Anyone can apply to the Trademark Office to cancel the trademark. The fee for trademark cancellation is RMB 500 for one category. If you entrust a trademark agency to handle the matter, you will need to pay additional agency fees.
