Utility Model Registration Services

In Turkey, patent and utility model applications are directly made by owners of the same or by the patent attorneys accredited by Turkish Patent and Trademark Office. Protection begins at the time of application. An application is made with a petition to the Office enclosed with a set of description documents to describe the invention and the elements requested to be taken under protection including Description, Demands, Summary and Drawings. The set of patent description is a special folder that covers the elements for which legal protection is demanded (demands) and the technical elements.

On the other hand, there is a wrong belief that a patent and utility model application is only made up of making an application to the relevant office with a petition. As a matter of fact, a patent (or utility model) serves as a title deed for the invention it describes. Another point of attention is that a brilliant invention may experience irreparable loss of rights if it is filed with a non-qualified set of description. While the added value brought by the patent or utility model is highly important, it is also critically important to have a properly prepared set of description and manage procedures well for the above reason.

Industrial property law nr. 6769 includes highly important provisions about innovations developed by employees of an establishment. In generally speaking, the establishment has a right to take ownership of the invention on condition that the income provided by the innovation or a remuneration in parallel with the value of the patent is honored to the employee. The legislation opens doors to prosperity of innovative people and especially of engineers.
