COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2026/138
of 15 January 2026
laying down detailed rules for implementing certain provisions of Council Regulation (EC) No 6/2002 on European Union designs
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 6/2002 of 12 December 2001 on European Union designs (1), and in particular Article 28a, Article 36a, Article 37a, Article 42a, Article 44a, Article 49a, Article 50c, Article 50f, Article 50h, Article 51a, Article 70a, Article 73a, Article 75a, Article 98a, and Article 105a thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 6/2002 created a system specific to the Union for the protection of designs to be obtained at the level of the Union on the basis of an application to the European Union Intellectual Property Office (‘the Office’). |
|
(2) |
Regulation (EU) 2024/2822 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) aligned the powers conferred upon the Commission under Regulation (EC) No 6/2002 with Articles 290 and 291 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. In order to conform with the new legal framework resulting from that alignment, certain rules are to be adopted by means of implementing and delegated acts. Those new rules should replace the current rules laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2245/2002 (3). |
|
(3) |
In the interest of legal certainty, consistency and simplification, the rules to be adopted by means of this Regulation should be aligned to the extent possible with the rules applicable to EU trade marks as laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/626 (4). |
|
(4) |
For reasons of clarity, legal certainty and efficiency, and with a view to facilitating the filing of EU design applications, it is of essential importance to specify, in a clear and exhaustive manner while avoiding unnecessary administrative burden, the mandatory and optional particulars to be contained in an application for a registered EU design, including in a multiple application. |
|
(5) |
Regulation (EU) 2024/2822 broadens the definitions of a design and product to entail new designs which are not embodied in physical products. Taking into account technical advances in relation to the visualisation of designs and the needs of Union industry in relation to new digital designs, it is necessary to allow for dynamic and animated representation of designs by any appropriate means using generally available technology. |
|
(6) |
It is appropriate to streamline proceedings to reduce administrative burden in the filing and processing of priority claims. To this end, the documentation to be filed for claiming the priority of a previous application should consist of a copy of the previous application. |
|
(7) |
In order to ensure the publication of all the information concerning a registration of an EU design, which is required for reasons of transparency and legal certainty, and following the broadening of the technical means for visual representation of a design, including dynamic or animated representations, it should be permissible for the Office to publish the registration of an EU design by making the representation of the design accessible electronically. |
|
(8) |
For the same reasons, it should also be permissible for the Office to issue certificates of registration in which the representation of the design is provided by electronic access to the relevant file. |
|
(9) |
Regulation (EU) 2024/2822 allows for requests for alteration of the representation of an EU design registration in immaterial details, abandoning the possibility to partially surrender and to partially invalidate a registered EU design. In the interest of clarity and legal certainty, it is important to specify the requirements for a request for alteration of the representation of an EU design registration in a clear and exhaustive manner. |
|
(10) |
Maximum rates for representation costs incurred by the successful party to proceedings before the Office should be specified, taking into account the need to ensure that the obligation to bear the costs may not be misused, inter alia, for tactical reasons by the other party. |
|
(11) |
For reasons of efficiency, periodical publications by the Office should be allowed in any electronic form supported by the Office, including in the form of a searchable database. |
|
(12) |
It is necessary to ensure an effective and efficient exchange of information between the Office and the authorities of the Member States in the context of administrative cooperation, taking appropriate account of the restrictions to which the inspection of files is subject. |
|
(13) |
In order to streamline proceedings before the Office, it should be possible to limit the submission of translations to those parts of documents that are relevant to the proceedings. For the same purpose, the Office should be authorised to require proof that a translation corresponds to the original only in the event of doubt. |
|
(14) |
For reasons of efficiency and given their non-complex nature and the fact that they do not touch upon the merits of the case, decisions of the Office on the apportionment and fixing of costs as well as on admissibility and certain other procedural questions in relation to applications for a declaration of invalidity of an EU design should be taken by a single member. |
|
(15) |
The detailed rules laid down in this Regulation relate to provisions of Regulation (EC) No 6/2002 that have been amended by Regulation (EU) 2024/2822 with effect from 1 July 2026. It is therefore necessary that this Regulation becomes applicable on the same date. At the same time, certain proceedings initiated before that date should continue to be governed until their conclusion by specific provisions of Regulation (EC) No 2245/2002. |
|
(16) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Implementation Rules, |
