International Registration

You may want to register your design(s) outside of Georgia to obtain protection in all member states of the European Union (EU), as well as in other territories outside the EU or even beyond. The Hague System for the International Registration of Industrial Designs provides a centralized international registration system where you can e-file up to 100 designs and target over 60 territories in one single application that could be used to claim priority in further filings.

Georgia is a Member of the 1960 (Hague) and 1999 (Geneva) Acts of the Hague Agreement. Any individual or business in Georgia can file an international application under the Hague System.
