Where possible, you are strongly encouraged to file forms online via IP2SG. Forms that are filed online would be processed more promptly and may possibly be cheaper than manual (hard copy) submissions. Acceptable modes of payment can be found here.
Alternative Filing Modes
(additional Service Bureau charges may apply)
You may file via FormSG.
We have ceased manual submissions via post/hand/courier/facsimile for Patents, Trade Marks and Registered Designs since 16 June 2020. Forms pertaining to the Registry of Geographical Indications or Plant Varieties Protection can be filed in hard copy.
Please provide your email address and Singapore contact number in your submission so that we can provide you with the payment instructions.
Payment shall be made via IP2SG's payment platform. You can expect to receive payment instructions via email within 3 working days after we receive your submission.
Unless otherwise stated, the form shall be treated as filed only when the form, requisite fees and all attachments (if any) are received by IPOS.
