Hague Agreement Defined

What is a Hague Agreement?
The Hague agreement is a registration system agreement used to protect industrial designs in designated member states and intergovernmental organizations. The governments involved in this agreement are called contracting parties, and the parties involved in the agreement have the right to protect up to one hundred industrial designs. As of 2022, 76 contracting parties, namely governments, are included in the Hague agreement. The person who will apply for the Hague agreement can apply directly to the International Office of the World Intellectual Property Organization. It is also possible for the parties to indirectly choose a contracting party office to apply. The industrial design that the applicant organization wants to be protected must be included in the application.
