Barbados Barbados The importance of IP in Barbados
The court system in Barbados
Barbados’s intellectual property law systems are party to numerous international conventions affecting IP.
The court system in Barbados is a mature one which upholds the rule of law and is modelled on that of England and Wales. The Supreme Court of Justice comprises a High Court and a Court of Appeal. Civil actions are commenced in the High Court, and appeals are heard by the Court of Appeal, with a further right of appeal to the Caribbean Court of Justice, located in Trinidad & Tobago.
Barbados has a well-established statutory legal regime based on the Trade Marks Act, the Patent Act, the Industrial Designs Act, the Geographical Indications Act, and the Copyright Act. Common law concepts, such as passing off trademarks and trade names, and misrepresentation are also applied in Barbados. Further protection for IP owners may be obtained under the Fair Competition Act. Barbados’s patent and trademark office Applications for registration of IP rights (with the exception of copyrights) are filed at the Corporate Affairs and IP Office (CAIPO), usually by a local attorney-at-law, who will normally be responsible for completing all procedural processes and addressing substantive issues pertaining to the protection of the IP. The local IP office regularly upgrades its IT systems affecting IP matters and consistently retrains staff to handle the details of any changing intellectual property practice regime.
Civil litigation is governed by the Rules of the Supreme Court, 2008 which, as with the English rules of court, give to the judges wide case management powers, and have introduced a regime of prescribed costs that are applicable in the absence of an agreed costs budget. The High Court has jurisdiction to hear appeals from decisions of the director/registrar as well as jurisdiction over infringement proceedings including the grant of injunctions.The key piece of advice of which IP owners who are desirous of entering the jurisdiction should be aware is that they should engage the services of an IP attorney for preliminary advice on industry practice and procedures. This step may provide insight into the local landscape of prior IP and other prior rights of local proprietors, as well as competitors, in order to avoid potential conflicts of interest which can only lead to unnecessary and sometimes protracted litigation.

Bulgaria Bulgaria The importance of IP in Bulgaria Bulgaria has been putting more and more effort into IP. Since 2007, Bulgaria has been a member of the EU and the country is strictly adhering to EU IP practice and harmonisation. Bulgaria’s patent and trademark office The Bulgarian Patent Office is very helpful. It actively participates in all convergence programmes launched by the EU IP Office. As it is well known, the aim of these projects are to reach
common ground in areas where IP offices have different practices and to create common IT tools. The Bulgarian Patent Office has implemented all of these projects. The court system in Bulgaria The Bulgarian courts have become more and more experienced in IP matters and follow the practice of the EU courts. Furthermore, litigation in Bulgaria is not expensive, with the average duration of a court proceeding lasting 12 to 18 months per instance.

Costa Rica Costa Rica An overview of the intellectual property in Costa Rica
Important information
Costa Rica, an emerging Central American country well known for its beautiful rainforest, coastlines, biodiversity and strong democratic system, is also known for being a country that has great awareness when it comes to protecting IP rights. Over the past few decades the country has committed to implement all the necessary measures, namely, laws, procedures, technology, educational campaigns, in order to properly protect the creations of the human mind.
Finding the right IP specialist is crucial when seeking protection of these type of rights in Costa Rica. Although the application process in Costa Rica is considered “user friendly”, there are numerous amounts of objections due to applications being filed without the proper expertise’s advice, and later on found to be objected by the examiner.
Costa Rica´s Trademark and Patent Office The Trademark and Patent office (TPO) as well as the Copyright Office set an example of the efforts made by the government to modernise and improve the registration process for IP matters. Costa Rican TPO offers an online consultation system where you can check the chronology of your trademark application as well as you patent application. Although full clearance searches are not yet available, they are in the loop of the authorities as one of the many goals to achieve technological growth as well as to globalise and innovate the services provided. The time frames for achieving registration on trademarks, patents or copyrights, are quite competitive, compared to other jurisdictions. For example, a trademark in a smooth process can be registered in only four months. IP rights are granted by an administrative instance, same that has a higher instance, the Administrative Court of Appeal. This highest instance’s resolutions are definite. Any resolution that requires a further instance, must be taken before a judicial court.
As a result, choose the best legal support you may find, and be mindful about professionals with vast experience in the field, this will save you time and resources and will prevent any contingencies. Other highlights Filing a trademark or patent application abroad can sometimes be of great complexity depending on the specific jurisdiction’s requirements or formalities. Costa Rica has worked towards simplifying formalities in a way that they do not become obstacles for protecting IP rights. One example of these measures is the reduction of formalities for powers of attorney, which need only notarisation, no Apostille or full legalisation required. Any other mandatory documents will need to comply with the foremost necessary formalities, that will be the Apostille stamp. Overall, it is simple and easy. One last, but not least important aspect, when filing for protection of IP rights in Costa Rica is that all official fees are established in US dollars. This fact makes it easier for foreign applicants to plan ahead and follow up, from a budget wise perspective, the costs and benefits of protecting their IP.

Greece Greece An overview of intellectual property in Greece Greece is a member of the most important international and regional IP treaties granting protection to IP rights. The importance of IP is further supported by means of low official fees for the grant of the relevant titles. It is important to note that national law is harmonised to a considerable degree with EU IP law, having adopted the fundamental principles of the TRIPS Agreement. Greece’s patent and trademark office In terms of patent prosecution, the Greek Patent Office offers search reports with written opinion providing useful information on prior art and patentability of the invention under examination. Supplementary protection certificates (SPCs) for human pharmaceuticals, including pediatric extensions, are granted under the rules of EU regulations. Likewise, SPCs for plant agents are also granted under relevant EU and national legislation. In terms of trademarks, the newly introduced system of examiners for new applications instead of the time consuming examination by the Administrative Trademarks Committee, in combination with the fact that a trademark application is examined on both absolute and relative grounds, guarantee a remarkable level of quality and legal certainty for new registrations. The court system in Greece With regard to patents, it is noteworthy that due to the absence of an opposition system, a granted patent is vulnerable to cancellation subject to an ordinary civil action. To this end, the plaintiff
has the burden to prove that one or more of the patentability requirements are not fulfilled. Consequently, the court will declare the patent title invalid, partially or in its entirety. A trademark may be revoked due to non-use. It may also be declared invalid on absolute or relative grounds. In this respect, circumstances such as lack of distinctiveness, bad faith, double identity with an identical or confusingly similar prior right, and other factors, often taking into account the Greek alphabet and the linguistic sense of consumers, may prove crucial for the cancellation of a registered mark. Helpful advice Greece’s geographic position as a part of the external borders of the EU makes it imperative for any IP owner to obtain full and enforceable IP protection with validity in the Greek territory and to be permanently vigilant against infringements in the physical and digital world. Infringements deriving either from domestic competition or imports from neighbouring Asian or other countries must be combated in an effective and timely manner. To this end, customs intervention, interlocutory injunction proceedings, claims before the competent regulatory authority for domain names and other measures should be properly considered. Last but not least, an elaborate body of case law against unfair competition, provisions tackling illicit commercial practices and consumer protection law are valuable tools in the hands of an IP owner, when needed.

Guatemala Guatemala An overview of the intellectual property in Guatemala Guatemala is an emerging Central American country which is, despite the fact that it has signed and ratified most of the intellectual property treaties, still considered as a country where the enforcement of IP rights is weak. An amendment of the IP law, Decree 57-2000 is currently ongoing at Congress but there is also a need for other aspects, as an IP policy or strategy that obligates not only some IP law changes but also an Interinstitutional Committee, specific enforcement law, specialised IP Courts, protection in plant varieties and mostly regulation of new technologies in IP as data protection, terms of privacy, videogames or social media regulations. Guatemala’s IP Office The Guatemalan IP Office is one of the few IP Offices in Latin America that offers a free online consultation system on the status of trademark applications as well as registered trademarks. Online free searches are also available (except owner searches). An electronic IP Bulletin, featuring the public notices of trademark, trade names and slogans, are published on a daily basis. The IP Office offers monthly electronic reports for a low fee. In a straightforward application, the period for achieving trademark registration is 10 to 12 months. Copyright works are protected within two to three months. Patents may take up to six years. The official fees for a trademark and patent application are considered high compared to other offices in Latin America. Other highlights A power of attorney is still needed it at the filing process. Such document no longer needs consular legalisation since Guatemala is part of the Apostille Convention since September 2017. If the power of
attorney is not granted in Spanish it will require its respective translation including the translation of the Apostille seal. The multi-class application system does not apply, thus, applications must be filed per mark and per class. Coexistence agreements are allowed but the trademarks in comparison must protect different goods and/or services. The coexistence agreement or the authorisation of a third party must be filed at the IP Office with the respective trademark application. According to the latest amendment of the IP Law (Decree 3-2013) the IP Office must require to the applicant a disclaimer of the exclusive rights to any elements that are descriptive, generic or necessary to use in commerce. The use and registration of trademarks are optional, but if a registered trademark has not been used by the owner or by the owner’s licensee for 5 consecutive years it is vulnerable to a cancellation action based on non-use. Such action will be filed in courts and the final decision may take up to 2 years. Regarding border measures, Guatemala has no IP Customs Department that includes a Registry of Trademark Holders. The process is based on provisions in the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of IP Rights, but the trademark owner takes an active role in customs seizures, even when authorities may act ex officio. Therefore, the owner has to file a preliminary injunction requesting the postponement of the clearance of the infringed merchandise, then customs will seize the goods for no more than 10 days, during which the trademark owner must file a civil or criminal action. Country Code Top Level Domain Names (ccTLDs) can be registered at www.gt (Universidad del Valle). The domain names available for open registrations are: .gt, .com.gt, .net.gt, .org.gt & .ind.gt. Residents and foreigners can request the registration with a simple process and after accepting their terms of services, registration policies and dispute policy. All fees can be paid online with a credit card.

Honduras Honduras An overview of IP in Honduras Honduras, the beautiful country located in the heart of America. A nation surrounded by natural beauty, bathed in its coasts by the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Our nation has taken the protection of IP very seriously, obtaining great results that generate peace of mind for investors who require the protection of their invention rights. Key factors In Honduras it is necessary for a legal professional to perform all actions related to the registration of trademarks, patents and copyrights, which is why adequate legal support is a key factor when it comes to registering them. Solid advice and firm knowledge in this area will facilitate this task, speeding up response times and providing adequate support if requirements or objections from the authority or third parties in the registration process arise. Having a good legal support is undoubtedly a determining factor when successfully achieving the necessary protection in this field. The simplicity in the process of trademark registration in Honduras is of its best strengths. Each year, more than 9,000 brands are renewed. Some brands have been in the Honduran market for 100 years. There were 270,000 registered trademarks in 2017. The protection of industrial property in Honduras has been going on for more than a century.
Honduras has the General Directorate of IP, which with the support of the World IP Organisation, is responsible for providing the necessary elements for the protection of IP in the Republic, thus creating a solid legal environment, endorsed by the signing of multinational agreements on the protection of IP. This is a sign of the credibility and firmness of the advances that have been achieved in this field over the years. The directorate has evolved in recent years and has the specialised human and technical resources to face the challenges of globalisation in the field of IP. It has different database systems for the protection of both brands, patents and copyrights. These platforms offer the possibility of making chronological queries about the processes of records that are currently ventilated. The industrial property law in Honduras is adapted to international standards, providing the appropriate guidelines to give effective response to the demand of those seeking an expeditious registration and protection in matters of IP. In the matter of the observance of IP rights Honduras is in a permanent struggle against crimes and infractions in this matter. The general directorate of IP works jointly with different governmental bodies to offer the population and the international community an environment of respect for IP rights. This legal security provides a fertile ground for new investments that boost the economy of our country. Border measures are coordinated for protection against piracy, counterfeiting and unfair competition.

Nicaragua Nicaragua An overview of IP in Nicaragua Nicaragua is a Central American country with a vast and beauty natural sources, very marked social and cultural expressions and a friendly climate of investment for national and foreign investors. In recent years, there has been an increase in investment in different economic sectors and more and more the active participation of entrepreneurs in the development of production and exploitation of resources to generate an increasingly supply and demand climate. Due to this increasingly strong supply and demand activity, Nicaragua has a legal system of industrial property that grants exclusive legal protection to inventions applicable to the industry and to the ideas that are developed in the business activity that have the purpose to advertise a specific commercial activity, or certain products or services in the market. IP Registry of Nicaragua In Nicaragua, the IP Registry (IPR) is the administrative body belonging to the Ministry of Development, Industry and Commerce, responsible for developing policies that encourage the protection of industrial and IP in the national territory and also is in charge of daily management of applications for protection of distinctive signs, patents of invention, utility models, copyright, etc. It is comprised by the Trademark Office, the Patent of Invention and New Technologies Office and the Copyright and Related Rights Office. The IPR has various laws, regulations and international agreements that regulate the protection of industrial and IP, thus becoming an organ with a legal framework in terms of industrial and IP adapted to the demands of the current economy and the globalisation.
The applications for registration of distinctive signs are the most demanded and it is mostly observed that the applicants are foreign companies that invest in the territory, however, it is also common that day to day national entrepreneurs approach to request advice to protect their signs. The average time it takes to obtain protection from the IPR is from 8 to 10 months, in case there is no opposition or objection from the authority. In terms of inventions, the Patent of Invention and New Technologies Office has a team of technical professionals in charge of providing advice to users and also process and examine applications for patents of invention, utility models and industrial designs. Since the entry into force of the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT), the growth in applications for protection of inventions has also been observed through the entry into the national phase of the same, which indicates that in this matter Nicaragua has international regulations that have opened the possibilities for foreign investors to protect their inventions and consequently to develop their commercial activities in the national territory in a safe way. There are also national protected patents and eventually conferences are given to National Universities to encourage intellectual activity and advice on the means available to national inventors to protect them. In terms of access to information, on the one hand the IPR has a very useful website that provides users with the applicable regulations, rates, contacts for queries, access to IP journals and, on the other hand, has facilities that give the user the possibility of reviewing the status of their procedures and making queries directly to the advisors. One aspect that could be improved to be a more competitive IP system is the creation of tools that allow the user to verify the status of their procedures from an online platform, thus facilitating access to information.

Taiwan
Taiwan Sponsored by
Taiwan Deep and Far Yu-Li Tsai, Partner Yu-Li Tsai graduated from the Department of Electrical Engineering of National Taiwan University. Immediately after graduating, Tsai attended the Graduate Institute of Communication Engineering and received his master’s degree after two years. During his studies, he began to get involved in patent-related matters, and eventually took and passed the patent bar examination. Tsai then attended and gained an intellectual property master’s degree from Law School of University of New Hampshire, also known as Franklin Pierce Center for Intellectual Property. Right after graduation, he had the opportunity to work for InterDigital in Delaware, and then passed the US patent registration examination. He also passed later the China patent agent examination. Currently, Tsai is working while majoring in a law master’s at the National Chiao Tong University. Tsai can be contacted via: yltsai@deepnfar.com.tw

Taiwan Taiwan An overview of intellectual property in Taiwan
The court system in Taiwan
Taiwan’s intellectual property law systems provide protection for patents, industrial designs, plant varieties, trademarks, copyright, integrated circuit layouts and trade secrets.
For any unsatisfactory decision made by TIPO, the applicant can first appeal the refusal decision to the Petitions and Appeals Committee. If the applicant is not satisfied with the committee’s decision, it can further appeal to the IP Court. If the applicant is dissatisfied with the IP Court’s decisions, it can further appeal to the Supreme Administrative Court to pursue a final decision.
The Taiwan IP Office’s (TIPO) examination quality has increased in recent years and our specialised IP Court has been around for eight years. Taiwan is continually heading towards an even better environment for protection. Taiwan’s patent and trademark office TIPO conducts research of, drafts and implements policies, regulations and systems related to patent, trademark, copyright and other matters related to IP rights. TIPO also engages in IP education, mediation, identification and assistance in right enforcement in IP infringement cases.
Helpful Advice It is important to note that Taiwan is not a PCT member, so no national phase can be entered, and thus any incoming application should be filed within a 12-month priority period. For a pharmaceutical invention, Taiwan accepts a composition claim reciting use of a medicine or Swiss-type claim, but rejects a treatment or therapeutical method claim. Regarding filing a trademark, it is suggested that a client conduct a search in the TIPO’s database before filing to have a smooth market deployment since Taiwan is a mature market.

United Kingdom WP Thompson Kerry Rees, Partner Kerry Rees is a partner in the London office of WP Thompson. He is a chartered patent attorney and European patent attorney specialising in the field of biotechnology, having completed a biochemistry degree at Oxford University in 2000, with research experience in cell signalling from the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. Having joined WP Thompson in 2012, after gaining over 10 years of experience in private practice, Rees is a key member of the team at WP Thompson joining colleagues with a wealth of experience and expertise in all technical and commercial sectors. As a biotechnology specialist, Rees has significant experience in international patent drafting and prosecution in the biotechnology field. He has specific expertise in patenting technologies relating to immunology and therapeutic antibodies, expression vectors and vaccines, microarrays, personalised medicine, diagnostic methods for Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and oncology, drug repurposing, new chemical entities and pharmaceutical formulations and medical devices. He represents clients before the EPO in opposition (both defending oppositions and as opponent) and appeal proceedings, and is frequently involved in freedom-to-operate reviews and opinions on third-party rights. Rees has worked with a wide variety of clients helping develop IP strategies for startup companies and SMEs, assisting universities and spin-out companies and managing large patent portfolios for multinational corporations. He particularly enjoys advising on IPrelated investment issues and works both with companies looking to raise funding and their potential investors. Kerry has drafted several IP-related reports as part of the due diligence process and helps investors assess a company’s IP portfolio. In addition to the drafting, filing and prosecution of UK and European patent applications filed under both the EPC and PCT, Rees has close links with a large number of attorney firms from across the globe. He is therefore also able to provide advice on strategies for seeking the full geographical coverage for an invention. Rees can be contacted via: ker@wpt.co.uk

United Kingdom United Kingdom An overview of the regulatory framework in the UK The UK is a fantastic place for companies and individuals involved with intellectual property, particularly due to the fact that there are so many options when it comes obtaining IP protection. This enables potential owners to take an approach best suited to their individual IP needs. Community rights for trademarks and designs can offer protection throughout Europe, while European patents can be centrally prosecuted and granted before being validated in numerous member states, making it easier and generally cheaper to protect IP over a wide geographical area. Alongside this, national routes for IP protection can be useful for smaller or more localised companies, as well as for larger companies seeking to establish the extent of protection which might be obtainable before going to the expense and effort of applying for protection via the patent cooperation treaty, European or community routes, giving potential owners the best of both worlds. The UK’s patent and trademark office In the UK, IP rights are dealt with by the UK IP Office, European Patent Office and EU IP Office. Each of these offices have made a concerted effort to make IP more accessible to more people. By embracing technology, prospective IP owners now have easy access to everything from IP laws and regulations up to date information on the status and history of granted and applied-for IP rights. By making this information freely available via their websites, IP owners and potential owners can make informed decisions on how to best manage their IP. From a patent perspective, the search and examination of patent applications by the UKIPO
and EPO is generally of relatively high quality. The speed at which patent applications are prosecuted from filing to grant can appear to be relatively slow, but there are mechanisms in place to speed up proceedings if required. Examiners are increasingly more amenable to engaging in dialogue with applicants and their representative early on in the prosecution process, which helps resolve difficult objections in a timely and cost effective manner. The court system in the UK One of the main things to be aware of about the court system at the moment is the upcoming Unified Patents Court. Though yet to be fully ratified, IP owners can look forward to this new streamlined court system, which is expected to enter in to force in the next few years. Currently, IP litigation is conducted separately in the national courts of each country, save for a very small window of opportunity in centralised EPO patent oppositions for European patents. The new Unified Patents Court will enable centralised litigation for the first time. This is a great step forward for IP owners and should result in quicker resolutions for patent disputes, as well as saving on translation and representation costs. Need to know IP owners, or anyone seeking to obtain any IP rights, should seek the advice of an experienced IP attorney in the appropriate jurisdiction. IP rights are territorial and the law and its application differs dramatically in different parts of the world. Not seeking advice, or seeking advice from an attorney outside the particular jurisdiction, can easily result in costly mistakes and even an irrevocable loss of rights.
