By obtaining design protection you can acquire exclusive rights for the registered design. Design registration is a proof of exclusivity to your design. The design protection in Sweden is granted for a period of 25 years by Swedish Patent and Registration Office (PRV).
A Swedish design does not grant you the international protection for which you have to file the application of International registration through PRV.
With a design registration you protect your product’s appearance, but not its function. The application must include the following:
- Information about the applicant, the agent and the designer
- Document of assignment
- Indication of product and class for your design
- Information regarding multiple registration
- Images.
- Model
- Information regarding priority
- Information regarding secrecy
- Current fee and your method of payment
- Signature, printed name, place and date
