International designs
Centralized procedure for filing an application for registration of a design in Milan
Our team of experts at Brevetti Digiovanni Schmiedt in Milan will support you through the process to extend a design or model application abroad, which can be done for individual countries or through a single procedure, as in the case of international design.
International design
International design is a design valid in one or more States party to the Hague Agreement. The registration of an international design is done by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) based in Geneva, Switzerland.
Duration and registration in a single country
After carrying out the centralized procedure for filing an application to register a design, it is valid for a duration of 5 years and renewable for another 5 up to a maximum of 10-25 years depending on the legislation in the individual countries.
Furthermore, if you wish to register a design in a single foreign country, you can do so by maintaining the priority of the filing date of the Italian application, provided that the foreign filing takes place within 6 months and the priority is claimed expressly.
In this case, the duration and judicial protection of the design or model are provided for by the current legislation in the individual foreign country. State-by-state filing is convenient only if the market for products incorporating the design is well circumscribed within individual countries.
