About the service:
Industrial design registration is the legal establishment of an exclusive right to the design of a product or its parts. This service protects the external appearance of your product from copying and allows you to use the design as a business asset.
We provide full legal support for industrial design registration in Ukraine — from the initial assessment to obtaining the certificate.
What Is Protected
Legal protection of an industrial design applies to the external appearance of a product, including:
- shape, lines, and contours;
- color and texture;
- materials and their combination.
Technical and functional solutions are not subject matter of industrial design protection.
Conditions for Legal Protection
An industrial design can be registered if it:
- is new — was not publicly available before the filing date of the application;
- has individual character — creates a different overall impression on an informed user;
- does not contravene public order or generally accepted principles of morality.
Protection is territorial in nature and applies within Ukraine. If needed, further international expansion is possible.

What Is Needed to Submit an Application
