An Indonesian Standard Patent has a maximum term of 20 years from the filing date. To keep the patent in force, annual renewal fees must be paid, starting from the year after the patent is granted.
Key Payment Rule: Fees are due annually, calculated from the grant date. Payment should be made before the anniversary of the Indonesian filing date each year. Fees vary based on patent pages and claims.
| Patent Year | Estimated Fee (IDR) * | Payment Deadline | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | ~ 1,200,000 - 1,800,000 | Upon grant notice | First annuity |
| Year 2-5 | ~ 1,500,000 - 2,500,000 /year | Before filing anniversary | Annual payment |
| Year 6-10 | ~ 2,000,000 - 3,200,000 /year | Before filing anniversary | Annual payment |
| Year 11-20 | ~ 2,500,000 - 3,500,000 /year | Before filing anniversary | Annual payment |
| Late Payment (6-month grace period) | + 100% Surcharge | Within 6 months after deadline | Fees double |
* Fee range is an estimate for a patent of average complexity (e.g., 15-30 pages, 5-15 claims). Exact fees depend on the number of pages and claims. Always confirm with the Indonesian IP Office (DJKI) or your local agent.

1. Fees are Variable: Indonesian patent annuities are not fixed. The exact amount must be calculated for each patent based on its specific pages and claims count.
2. Consult Official Sources: Use the official Indonesian Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DJKI) website or a local agent for precise calculations before payment.
3. Timing is Critical: Mark your filing anniversary. Late payments within the 6-month grace period incur a 100% surcharge, effectively doubling the cost.
4. Designs are Different: Remember, registered designs have no annual fees, only a one-time registration cost.
Disclaimer: The fee ranges provided are estimates based on standard patent profiles and official fee schedules as of 2024/2025.
