Where the designation is made for the purposes of a national patent:

An invention being the subject of a published international patent application designating Estonia shall confer provisional protection as provided for in the Patent Act (Section 18) as from the date on which the Estonian Patent Office publishes the translation into the Estonian language of the international patent application furnished by the applicant in accordance with Section 33(1) of the Patent Act or, if the applicant seeks an earlier date, from the date on which a translation of the claims of the published international patent application into the Estonian language has been communicated by the applicant to the person using the invention in Estonia, or as from the date on which the said translation has been made available to the public by the Office, where the translation was communicated to the Office and the fee prescribed for the publication of the translation was paid.

Where the designation is made for the purposes of a European patent:

(1) International application published in one of the EPO official languages: an invention being the subject of a published European patent application designating Estonia shall confer the same provisional protection as provided for in the Patent Act (Section 18) as from the date on which a translation of the claims of the published European patent application into the Estonian language has been communicated by the applicant to the person using the invention in Estonia, or as from the date on which the said translation has been made available to the public by the Estonian Patent Office, where the translation was communicated to the Office and the fee prescribed for the publication of the translation was paid.

(2) International application published in a language which is not an EPO official language: the protection referred to in (1) does not become effective until the EPO publishes the international application supplied to it in one of its languages.

[MT] EE.13 유틸리티 모델

If the applicant wishes to obtain utility model registration on the basis of an international application

— instead of a patent, or

— in addition to a patent,

for international applications filed before 1 January 2004, this must have been indicated in the international application (in Box No. V of the request) when filed; for international applications filed on or after 1 January 2004, since the request form no longer provides for the furnishing of such an indication, the applicant, when performing the acts referred to in Article 22 or 39, shall so indicate to the Office. The term of a utility model certificate is generally four years from the date of filing the application, though the term may be extended (upon request and payment of a fee) initially for four years and later for two more years.

EE.14

Whether the international application is for a utility model instead of a patent, or for both a utility model and a patent, the application shall conform to the following requirements, which differ somewhat from those of patents:

EUL Sec. 6(1),

EUL Sec. 8

(a) the application may not be in respect of more than one invention; utility model protection does not cover biotechnological inventions;

EUL Sec. 9(3)

(b) the application may contain only one independent claim and a plurality of dependent claims;

PCT Article 7(2)(ii),

PCT Rule 7.2

(c) if the application does not contain drawings, the Office will invite the applicant to furnish drawings within a specified period of time;

EUL Sec. 18(2),

EUL Sec. 34(2)

(d) a registration fee must be paid. The application will not be processed until the fee has been paid. A renewal fee is payable for extension of the term of protection from four to eight and from eight to 10 years. The fee for extending the term of the certificate should be paid within six months before the expiration of the previous term, although it may be paid (with a 10% surcharge) up to six months after the expiration of the previous term. The amounts of the registration fee and the renewal fees are indicated in Annex EE.I.

EE.15

If the international application is for both a utility model and a patent, the applicant must pay both the registration fee for the utility model and the national fee for a patent application. The power of attorney and declaration concerning the right to apply for a utility model and patent (if any) should be in duplicate for the utility model and the patent application.

[MT] EE.16 변환

EUL Sec. 19

An international application for a patent may be converted into a utility model application after the application complies with the requirements for a patent application for entry into the national phase. The utility model application shall be deemed as having been filed on the date the patent application was filed. After the conversion, the patent application will be deemed to have lapsed. The conversion is subject to payment of the utility model registration fee indicated in Annex EE.I. Conversion cannot be requested:

— after the expiration of 10 years from the international filing date;

— in respect of a refused, abandoned or lapsed patent application.
