It is recalled that on May 5, 2018 I blogged about the imminent development of the Netherlands Patent Office joining the DAS system. Today is the day! The participation of the Netherlands Patent Office in DAS is as a depositing Office and as an accessing Office. The participation is as to patent applications and PCT applications.
This brings to 19 the number of DAS participating Offices.
