Doing business successfully starts with registration

"Protecting the exterior of a product is like car insurance. It costs a bit of money but then, should something happen, it is a blessing. It gives you something with which to take any legal action that might be necessary.”

Do things yourself or get them done by others?

If you wish, you can arrange the registration of your designs yourself. We have done everything possible to make the registration procedure with Benelux Office for Intellectual Property (BOIP) as straightforward as possible. A great deal of information can be found on this website. And if you download the paper form you can also consult the clarifying notes to the form.

You should, however, remember that optimum protection of your designs involves all kinds of practical and legal issues.
