Where the sum paid is larger than the fee, the excess will not be refunded if the amount is insignificant and the party concerned has not expressly requested a refund. It has been decided that any amount up to EUR 10 constitutes an insignificant amount (Art. 1 of the Decision of the President of the EPO dated 12 July 2007, Special edition No. 3, OJ EPO 2007, M.3).
