Extension of Design Protection in India – Detailed Explanation
We handle the extension of your registered design protection in India. Our service includes monitoring the protection duration and timely notification of upcoming extensions. With our support, you can ensure that your design protection is renewed on time.
Maximum Protection Duration and Extension Options
A registered design in India is initially protected for a period of 10 years from the date of registration. This protection can be extended once for an additional 5 years, bringing the total duration to 15 years.
Extension Process
The extension of design protection is carried out by submitting a formal application to the relevant office and making timely payment of the required fees. The extension application can be submitted at the time of design registration. If this is not done, the application must be filed no later than the expiration of the 10-year protection period. The extension fees must also be paid within the active protection period to avoid additional costs. The application and fee must be submitted to the office before the protection expires to ensure uninterrupted rights.
