New Official Fees and Formalities Regulation


The new Portuguese Industrial Property Code came into force on July 1, 2019 and the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Finance adopted new official fees. All official fees have been adjusted in accordance with the inflation rate.

Further on July 4, 2019, the Portuguese INPI published its Decision no. 6142/2019 concerning the “Formal requirements and rules for applications and documents that regard the granting of industrial property rights”. This document contemplates implementing rules and technical requirements for applications of trademarks, utility models, designs and patents, etc. including the requirements for representation for the several types of trademarks foreseen (e.g. colour marks per se, sound marks, multimedia marks, movement marks and hologram marks).

Please note that the Portuguese Country Information has been updated with the amendments of the new Portuguese Industrial Property Code thanks to our contributor A. G. da Cunha Ferreira, Lda. from Portugal.
