      Main questions about industrial design

      What is an industrial design registration?

We remind you that the order presentation can be colored, but the colors are not protected, that is, the configuration or the ornamental pattern will be protected regardless of the colors used.

      What cannot be protected as a record?

      Industrial designs that are contrary to morals and good customs or that offend the honor or image of people or violate freedom of conscience, belief, religious cult or ideas and feelings worthy of respect and veneration cannot be subject to protection. Furthermore, the necessary common or vulgar form of an object, or even that essentially determined by technical or functional considerations, are also not registrable. Purely artistic objects or patterns, that is, those that cannot be reproduced on an industrial scale, are also exempt from industrial design registration.

      Who can deposit?

      Any natural or legal person, as long as they have the legitimacy to obtain the registration.

      What are the rights conferred on the holder of the industrial design registration?

      The owner of the industrial design has the right to prevent third parties from producing, offering for sale, using or importing the industrial design subject to registration, without his consent.

      What is the territory of registry protection?

      The industrial design registration is valid only in the national territory.

      Is it possible to publicize the industrial design at fairs, seminars and congresses before depositing it?

      It is recommended to deposit in advance. However, the law allows disclosure, provided that it is made up to 180 days before the filing of the industrial design registration application and that it is promoted by the author or third parties based on information obtained directly or indirectly from the author. In this case, it is possible to declare, in the deposit form itself, the conditions of this disclosure (Art. 12 and 96 of the Industrial Property Law).
