Process description

1. Filing of a design registration renewal application

A design registration renewal application must be submitted. The application must include:

a petition for renewal of a design registration (completed design registration renewal application), specifying which designs are subject to renewal, if the registration is complex.

Renewal fee is to be paid at the time of filing the renewal application. If the deadline for filing for renewal is missed and the registration of the design has expired, the Patent Office shall, at the request of the proprietor, grant an additional period of six months after the expiry of the registration and shall renew the registration if the corresponding additional fee has been paid together with the renewal fee.

The power of attorney shall be attached to the application if it is filed through an authorised person. The original copy of the power of attorney must be submitted and, where the power of attorney is applicable to several applications, a copy must be attached to each application separately. Professional patent attorneys may file an application without a power of attorney.

2. Renewal of a design registration and publication

If the application for renewal of the design registration complies with the requirements of applicable laws and regulations, the Patent Office shall take a decision on the renewal of the registration of a design. The renewal of the registration of a design shall be entered in the Register of Designs. The holder of the design registration shall be issued an extract from the Register of Designs on the renewal of the registration; the extract shall be issued in paper or electronic format. Information on the renewal of the registration of a design shall be published in the official publication of the Patent Office.
