What fees are required for filing a reissue application?

For reissue applications, the following fees are required:

• Basic filing fee (37 CFR 1.16(e))
• Search fee (37 CFR 1.16(n))
• Examination fee (37 CFR 1.16(r))
• Application size fee, if applicable
• Excess claims fees, if applicable

As stated in the MPEP, “The basic filing, search and examination fees are due on filing of the reissue application.” However, these fees can be paid later within the time period set forth in 37 CFR 1.53(f), but a surcharge will apply.
