Changes in Russia due to COVID-19
In order to prevent the spread of COVID-19 virus on the territory of the Russian Federation, on 26 March 2020 the Russian Government made a decision to minimize communication between people and announced days off from 30 March to 3 April. There is a high probability that the days off will be extended.
For this reason, Rospatent was closed from 30 March 30 to 3 April. All deadlines that fell between 30 March and 3 April are moved forward a week. During this time, the Patent Office received electronic documents related to the daily operations: filing applications, responding to the requests for examination, extending the periods relating to patents, trade marks and industrial designs, but all orders will be fulfilled after the termination of the weekends and the work resumption.
Information on the further Rospatent operating mode will be available subsequently.
Law firms are also forced to stop operating in a standard mode. Fortunately, modern technologies allow us to carry out the activities by working remotely and staying in touch with the world via email, phone and video conference.
