Our law firm provides comprehensive and professional support for the renewal of your registered industrial design in Israel. We manage the entire renewal process, notify you of deadlines in advance, and ensure that your design remains continuously protected.
1. Protection Period and Renewal Options Overview
A registered industrial design in Israel can be renewed for a maximum protection period of 15 years. Protection begins on the date of application with the relevant authority. The initial protection period is 5 years and can be extended twice for additional 5 years each.
It is crucial to carry out renewals in a timely manner to maintain uninterrupted protection for your design.
2. Steps in the Renewal Process
The renewal process for a design includes the following steps:
- Filing a formal renewal application with the Israeli Patent Office,
- Making the timely payment of renewal fees.
We assist you in preparing and submitting all necessary documents and monitor the entire process to ensure a timely renewal. We recommend submitting the renewal application at least 6 months before the protection period expires.
3. Grace Period and Additional Fees
If the renewal or payment of fees is not completed within the regular deadline, it is possible to complete the process within a grace period of up to 6 months after the protection period ends. However, late payment fees will apply in such cases.
If the grace period is exceeded, the design protection will lapse permanently, and restoration is only possible under specific circumstances.
4. Required Information and Documents
To efficiently process your renewal application, we require the following details:
- The registration number of your design,
- The application date of the design with the relevant authority.
We also assist you in reviewing and updating your data to ensure a smooth renewal process.

Our service includes:
- Our processing fees, covering all administrative steps such as preparation, submission, and monitoring of the renewal application,
- The official fees required by the Israeli Patent Office for the renewal.
