Insuranceopedia Explains License Fee

License fees constitute a large portion of a state's tax revenues, as there are many activities that require people and organizations to pay a fee so that they become legal. Driving, selling products and opening a business are just some of the activities that require fees to obtain a license from the government.

Intellectual property such as a brand name or a design can be used if one pays a license fee to the owner of such property. The legal intellectual property owner usually gets a percentage from the sales of products that use any of their property.
