Industrial Design And Drawing Registration In Indonesia

Applications must be submitted in writing to the Republic of Indonesia's Directorate General of Intellectual Property Rights. According to Article 14 paragraph (1) in conjunction with Article 1 paragraphs (8) and (10) of Law No. 31 from 2000, applications submitted by overseas applicants must be made through a consultant of intellectual property rights who has been designated as their representative.

The application is subject to an administrative review after submission. The Directorate General will publish the application for a period of three months after the examination is finished. The applicant may simultaneously file a written request to postpone publication at the time of filing.

According to Article 25 paragraphs (4) and (5) of Law No. 31 of 2000, this deference cannot last more than 12 months starting from the filing date or the priority date. Before, if there was no protest or objection from a third party after the publication time had ended, the application was immediately registered. The Certificate of Industrial Design for the relevant application was then issued by the Directorate General.

After the publication period has expired, each Industrial Design submission will be processed in the substantive examination. The following criteria are used to thoroughly perform the Examination:

• Whether the industrial design is novel and has not been disclosed anywhere else in the world, and
• Not against current laws, public decency, religion, or public order.

• A copy of the drawings; it includes six perspectives, including the front, back, left and right sides, top and bottom plans. Additionally, you may send additional drawings, such as cross-sectional views and perspective drawings, images in the jpg format.
• Each creator's full name and address.
• The title of the item to which the design is applied, the full names of each applicant, their addresses, the application number, the nation, and the filing date of the priority application.
• The priority document.
• Declaration of Novelty with regard to the items to which industrial design is applied. However, it is not necessary when registering textiles, lace, or wallpaper.
• Fees must be paid in whole.

Registration steps:

• Determining whether a particular design has already been registered.

The design is published in the Journal once the formalities have been examined for a period of three months, which the parties may request be extended to twelve months. During the time of publication, interested third parties may object to the registration of the design. Only when there is disagreement is there a substantive examination. During a substantive examination, a counter statement and an opposition are taken into account. The design is registered and a Certificate of Registration is issued after the substantive examination is finished.

For ten years, the design is protected.
