Revised Office Guidelines Published


EUIPO has adopted the second part of the revised Office Guidelines which entered into force on August 1, 2016.

The new Guidelines are available on the EUIPO's website under the Current trade mark practice and Current designs practice pages.

The Guidelines have been updated with case law from the Court of Justice of the EU, the case law of EUIPO's Boards of Appeal, and the outcome of the Convergence Programmes. The revision of the Guidelines will increase consistency and predictability for users, and is aligned with the goals of EUIPO's Strategic Plan.
