I just found out that I forgot to pay the annual fee, can I still pay it now?

Is it because you haven't paid the annual fee for the previous year? Then you may need to send an email to apply and make up the payment, and there should be an announcement on the official website maintenance, even if you don't see the announcement, it will generally be fine for a while.

If the ACCA annual fee is not paid within the stipulated time due to various reasons, then the title of ACCA will be temporarily cancelled. At this time, you can send an email to the official and ask the official to help you reactivate the ACCA title, of course, the unpaid annual fee and a certain amount of fine will definitely not be able to escape, so if it is not necessary, it is better to pay it on time.

The ACCA annual fee is paid twice a year, in May and December, and the official will remind you to pay the fee by email. For example, if you don't receive the payment email in May, don't worry, the official will send the payment email in December.

I hope mine is helpful to you, Pujiang Finance (I wish you a happy life!)

Gordon Education is glad to have you:

There are often cases where you can't log in to the official website of ACCA, please don't worry, this is normal. The annual fee for ACCA should be paid as early as possible, and if you don't pay it before the deadline for other reasons, don't be too anxious, and paying it a few days after the deadline is not the biggest problem. If it takes too long, it will be more troublesome, and the account will be frozen, and you will need to pay a penalty to unblock the account.

For Chinese patents, the payment of patent annuity fees should be paid before the annual deadline of the following year, if the payment is delayed, the lag time is less than one month, and the original fee is still paid according to the empty use, and the lag time is more than one month, and the delay time will begin to be charged on a monthly basis, if the lag is more than 6 months, it means that the patentee has given up the patent right obtained, and the State Intellectual Property Office will transfer the patent.

If the legal status is changed to "Patent Termination", you will no longer be able to continue to pay the annual fee for the patent, and you will need to apply for restoration of the patent first.

In short, there is a grace period of about 6 months to make up the payment, and after the grace period, you will have to reapply for the restoration of the patent right.

What should I do if I forget to pay the patent annuity fee?

Concern. You can continue to pay the patent annuity fee within six months after the deadline (including exactly six months), and the patent right will be terminated after six months. Anyone who has a patent knows that patents are subject to annual fees.

The amount of the annual fee is or increases with the length of protection, i.e., each year that passes is an additional fee than the previous year. Because you need to pay the patent annuity fee every year, you forget the time to pay the annual fee. Can I recover if I forget to pay the patent annuity fee?

There is a time limit for patent contributions. Within six months (including exactly six months) after the deadline, you can continue to make retroactive payments. The details are as follows:

1) If the annual fee is paid for 1 day to 1 month (including 1 whole month) after the specified period, no late fee is required; (2) If the deadline exceeds the prescribed period by 1 month to 2 months (including 2 full months), the amount of late fee to be paid is 5% of the full annual fee; 3) 2 months to 3 months (including 3 whole days) beyond the specified period.
