The Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines has announced the issuance of the revised rules and regulations on trademarks, service marks, trade names and marked or stamped containers.
According to IPOPHL, the amendments list down “acceptable” representations of non-traditional marks, particularly drawings that depict a series of movements. Moreover, the agency said the amendments also formally implement the mandatory online filing that has been in place since September 2020. IPOPHL said it may provide an exception in receiving physical documents or hard copies under “exceptional” circumstances, such as natural calamity and prolonged system downtime, or the director general may decide.
According to IPOPHL, the amendments are designed to support its six-point BRIGHT Agenda, which it said instills the goals to transform IPOPHL into a “fully-digitized” agency and raise the ante for customer service.
