A week from now, the Brazilian industrial property office will become even more trendy, modern, and up-to-date than it already is. It will become an Accessing Office in the DAS system for two more kinds of priority document.
By way of background, Brazil’s first connection with the DAS system happened on December 1, 2017 (blog article) when it became a Depositing Office for national patent applications and (through RO/BR) for PCT applications. On April 1, 2018 it became an Accessing Office for national patent applications. On August 3, 2020 it became a Depositing Office for design applications and for trademark applications.
The big news today is that on August 1, 2023 the Brazilian industrial property office will add two more types of participation to its connection to the DAS system. It will become an Accessing Office for national design applications and (through the IB) for Hague design applications.
