WIPO Pay: Paying Hague System fees using eHague-Action Online payment

Hey there! Welcome to our tutorial.

In this video you will learn how to pay your industrial design fees under the Hague System in WIPO Pay after you have already filed with the International Bureau (that is, WIPO) and closed your application, using the eHague-Action Online payment.

If you filed your Hague application with WIPO, you have to pay your fees to WIPO.

If you filed with another receiving Office, you have 2 options: either you pay to that receiving Office or to WIPO.

From your eHague Workbench, select the design application concerned, for which a payment should be made.
Click on "View" in the Actions column to access the application details.

Your application will open. Scroll down the page until you see the "Payments" section.

Here you'll find information on the amount received, the amount requested, the payment status, date, method, and the Item number (also called ePay number).

Click on the Item number to be re-directed to the payment application WIPO Pay.

If you hold a Current Account at WIPO and it is not yet synchronized with your WIPO Account, you can do so by clicking on "Yes, I want to pay using my Current Account at WIPO".

You will be prompted to enter your Current Account credentials.
If you have questions about the synchronization, you can watch one of our previous tutorials on this topic before clicking the "Yes" button.

If you do not have a Current Account, click on "I do not have a Current Account at WIPO".

You will be asked to fill in your billing information, which will appear on all receipts.
You can then proceed with our other payment methods such as credit card or PayPal.

To learn more about both options, check out our tutorial about WIPO Pay.
Now, let's proceed with the payment as a Current Account holder.

For Current Account at WIPO holders, Current Account is the default payment method.

Before paying with a Current Account at WIPO, ensure your Current Account balance is sufficient to cover the fee total.

If you would like to use another payment method, enable it by clicking on the appropriate button.

In this video, we will proceed with the payment using Current Account at WIPO.
Click on "Continue" to pay.

Congratulations! Your fee has been paid and you will soon receive a payment confirmation at the e-mail address connected to your WIPO Account.

You will find information about your payment under the "Basket status".

Here are all the references you need for communication with WIPO about your payment.

You can also find all the necessary references in the payment confirmation e-mail. You will receive a payment receipt after the payment has been processed at WIPO.
