A 15 percent discount on the examination fee for patent applications that include a valid international search report or an international preliminary examination report has been reintroduced.

Small and middle-sized entities that are residents of Kazakhstan are now entitled to a 20 percent discount on applications for patents, utility models, industrial designs and selection achievements.
