Accession to the Hague System


On 7 January 2025, Saudi Arabia deposited its instrument of accession to the Geneva Act of the Hague Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Industrial Designs with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). This latest accession brings the total number of countries covered by the Hague System to 99.

On 7 April 2025, when the Geneva Act of the Hague Agreement enters into force in Saudi Arabia, designers or business owners in Saudi Arabia will be able to seek protection in any of the 99 countries covered by the Hague System, by filing just one international application. In parallel, non-residents seeking design protection in Saudi Arabia will be able to designate the newest contracting state in their international applications.
