Court fees

Fees for monetary claims are a percentage of the claim value and differ by stage. Set the claim value and stage to compute your filing fee.

How is it calculated?

  1. ۱

    At first instance, the first 200 million rial of the claim is charged at 2.5% and the excess at 3.5%.

  2. ۲

    Default objection and appeal cost 4.5%, and cassation, retrial and third-party objection 5.5% — these stages compute on the judgment amount.

  3. ۳

    The percentages come from clause 12 of Article 3 of the State Revenues Act and budget table 16; non-monetary case fees are fixed by circular.

Sources: the State Revenues Collection Act; budget-law table 16 (the percentages have been stable in recent years).
