IP and Patent Bills Passed


The Intellectual Property Tribunal Act of 2018 entered into force without any accompanying regulations. The Act seeks to establish a decision-making body which will be responsible for hearing all matters and disputes involving intellectual property rights in Eswatini (Swaziland).

Further, the Patent and Design Act of 1997 and the Patent, Designs and Trade Marks Act of 1936 have now been replaced with the Patents Act. More information details will be published at a later stage.
