Fax Services to Be Discontinued


As of March 1, 2021, the EUIPO will discontinue its fax services by Decision of the Executive Director No EX 20 9. The decision has been driven by the fact that fax is no longer reliable from a technical point of view.

EUIPO informs on fax alternatives, such as an “e-Reply button” available in all e-communications sent by the Office where a reply is permitted. In addition, the EUIPO is working on a file-sharing option as a fall-back solution in case of a lack of connection with the Office systems.

Technical details on these back-up solutions (fax alternative and file-sharing) will be available in the ‘conditions of use’ of each option. Postal mail will continue to be an accepted means of communication with the Office. More Information can also be seen here
