The cost of a patent is distributed over its entire life span (20 years) and depends on various factors such as the complexity of the invention, the number of claims and above all the territorial coverage (i.e. in which states you want to protection your invention).
In Italy, the initial costs of filing a patent, including professional fees, are limited to a few thousand euros. If foreign protection is required, these costs tend to increase depending on the number of countries in which the invention should be protected.
