Design reform comes one step closer
On 14 March, the European Parliament formally adopted the texts for the new EU design regulation and EU design directive.
The texts were provisionally agreed with the Council on 5 December 2023. The Council must now formally adopt the texts and after that they will be published in the Official Journal.
More information on the regulation and the directive is available on the European Parliament’s website here and here respectively.
The design reform package aims to update definitions and fees for registered designs, which will become known as registered EU designs. It will also introduce a repair clause.
The MARQUES Designs Team continues to monitor the progress of the reform and will host a webinar on the topic later this year. If you have any questions in the meantime, please contact a member of the Team.
