Publications in the Design Gazette
The Design Gazette announces design applications if we find no obstacles in our examination and if the application meets the conditions for registration. The gazette also announces, among other things, registered designs, transfers, and renewals. Once the mark is registered, the registration is published automatically. This means we can publish new registrations every day.
The purpose of the publication is to make the registered design right publicly known and to give anyone a possibility to file an opposition. The deadline for filing an opposition is two months from the publication of the design right in the gazette.
