A Single Format for Exchange with Offices


WIPO informs that structured data of international registrations, which are subject of exchange with Offices, are currently provided by the Office in both DTD and ST.96 format. This is also the case for international registrations published in the International Designs Bulletin (IDB).

As of March 31, 2021, the ST.96 format (version 4.0) will be the only authoritative and supported source of structured data. The change is to ensure accuracy and consistency of the data provided as the representation certain design-specific information in sufficient detail or scale to non-Latin languages is not possible with the DTD format.

The 12/2021 edition of the Bulletin, to be published on Friday, March 26, 2021, will be the last to use DTD as an authoritative format.
