DESIGNS

Protection is available for the protection of industrial designs for 15 years, renewable every 5 years.

A design is any combination of lines or colours or both, and any three-dimensional form, whether or not associated with colours, is an industrial design, if it is intended by the creator to be used as a model or pattern to be multiplied by industrial process and is not intended solely to obtain a technical result.

An industrial design is registrable if:

a) It is new; and
b) It is not contrary to public order or morality.
