EU design reform published
The EU design reform has today (18 November 2024) been published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
The reform package comprises Regulation (EU) 2024/2822 amending Council Regulation No 6/2002 on Community designs and repealing Commission Regulation No 2246/2002 and Directive (EU) 2024/2823 on the legal protection of designs.
The Regulation enters into force on the 20th day following publication and will apply four months later.
The Directive also formally enters into force 20 days after publication. EU member states have 36 months from that date to implement the directive in their national legislation.
The MARQUES Designs Team, working closely with other IP associations, has provided input into the design reform process and continues to monitor the progress. Find out more on the Designs Team page and read the joint comments of ECTA, INTA and MARQUES on the public consultation (January 2023) here.
