Law ratifying Geneva Act of Hague Agreement Concerning International Registration of Industrial Designs

April 4, 2017

Vladimir Putin signed the Federal Law On the Ratification of the Geneva Act of the Hague Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Industrial Designs.

The federal law ratifies the Geneva Act of the Hague Agreement on the International Registration of Industrial Designs, adopted on July 2, 1999 and signed in Geneva on July 6, 1999.

The Geneva Act regulates the procedure for filing international applications for the international registration of industrial designs. The ratification of the Geneva Act will simplify the procedure of legal protection of industrial designs in the countries that have ratified it.

In the Federal Law, the Russian Federation made a number of statements aimed at ensuring legal certainty and proper implementation of international obligations undertaken by the Russian Federation in accordance with the Geneva Act.
