Renewal fees for designs in Hong Kong must be paid by certain dates. In this section you will find a description of how these renewal due dates are calculated, both the very first renewal due date and all subsequent renewal due dates.
The first renewal fee must be paid on the day before the fifth year from the filing date to the Intellectual Property Department. This renewal must be paid regardless of whether the design has been registered or not.
For example, if the filing date is 2020-07-15, the first renewal will be due by 2025-07-14.
After the first renewal has been paid, all subsequent renewals must be paid every 5 years. The due date should be the month and the day before the date corresponding to the filing date.
For example, if the filing date was on November 9, then all subsequent renewals will be due on November 8 every 5 years.
