Timing of the start of substantive examination – The difference between a Hague application and a national counterpart

9:18 am 07/05/2021 284 views

The Hague Agreement concerning the International Registration of Industrial Designs officially took effect in Vietnam on December 30, 2019.

There have been recently a concern if the information at http://www.noip.gov.vn/ of Intellectual Property Office of Vietnam (http://noip.gov.vn/web/english/industrial-designs and http://noip.gov.vn/en_US/web/english/industrial-design-examination-procedure) is contradictory.

The table below, provided by IPHOUSE & ASSOCIATES, highlights the difference of the prescribed period for the nofication of refusal (in other words, the timing of the start of the substantive examination) between an international application filed under the Hague and a national counterpart.

The timing of the start of the substantive examination
International application 
(under the Hague Agreement)
 National application*
06 months
(from the date of publication)
07 months
(from the date of publication)

(*) 06 months as previously adopted and applied. However, due to the law amendment of 2019 by which the prescribed period for the substantive examination has been raised up to 07 months.

In the light of the above, the information should be considered accurate at the time of publication until the amendment of the IP law.
