France :

Likewise, the EPO has been applying a new official fee rate schedule since April 1, 2020. This is why we insisted on getting your instructions and completing the formalities before the deadline for fee increases. This made it possible to maintain our tariffs at no additional cost and to carry out the formalities at the tariff announced.
