Using Class 14-01 in a Design Application
The Designs Office classifies articles by the current edition of the Locarno Classification (rule 10(1), Designs Rules, 2001). The application in Form 1 must state the class and the article to which the design is applied.
- Name the article in the words of the list where they fit, and give the class and subclass.
- One application covers one class. To register the same design in another class of article, file a separate application in that class.
- If the class is in doubt, the Controller decides it, in consultation with the applicant where required.
