Design registration in Estonia
The unique appearance of your product can be protected by a design patent in Estonia to prevent copying and unauthorized use. A design patent grants the same rights as an invention patent, allowing you to control the patented design, profit from it, and take legal action against unauthorized users.
Key Features of a Design Patent
1. Registration Requirements: The design must be purely visual, unrelated to the functionality of the product, and an integral part of it.
2. Simplified Protection Procedures: To determine infringement of your design rights, the court only needs to compare the appearance of your product with that of the opposing party.
In general, registering a design patent is easier and more cost-effective than other forms of patent protection.
When and Why to Register a Design Patent?
To file an application for registration in Estonia, you need to gather several documents:
- A detailed description and title of the design.
- Images of the product from different angles and in various formats, along with their descriptions.
- An application for registration.
- Confirmation of your identity and applicant information.
- Receipts for paid application fees.
However, patenting the design itself may not always be advisable. In some cases, securing copyright for the image or registering a trademark, including the product design as a distinctive feature, may be better options. Additionally, there is a specific type of patent for industrial design.
To determine whether it is worth registering the design separately in your case and to prepare the necessary application documents, consulting with a lawyer is recommended. While you can handle the process yourself, working with a professional significantly simplifies it.
