The 2026 Biennial Fee collection period is now open and will close on December 31, 2026. An email will be sent to the primary email address of all active attorneys in the District of Colorado who are required to pay the biennial fee. This email will contain a link through which payment can be rendered through pay.gov.
In addition to the emailed payment link, the biennial fee can be paid at the Attorney Re-Registration link.
Attorneys who are required to pay the biennial fee and fail to do so by December 31, 2026, will no longer be considered "In Good Standing" in the District of Colorado. Their e-filing privileges will be deactivated and a $50 late fee will be assessed to their account. E-filing privileges and "In Good Standing" status will only be reinstated upon payment of the biennial fee and late fee.
