      AR par.4.5, pp.67- 68

      In 2022, the international registration systems department participated in activities to improve the International Classification of Goods and Services for the registration of Marks (Nice Classification, hereinafter ‘NCL’), with the aim of establishing conditions for the use of the new WIPO standards in the Federal Service for Intellectual Property and improved international classification for the purposes of the Registration of Marks: 

      - preparation of the official translation into Russian of terms used in the 12-th edition of the 2023 version of NCL, NCL (12-2023);

      -translation into Russian of terms used in NCL (12-2023) for WIPO supporting tool "Madrid Goods & Services Manager" and transferring of materials to WIPO;

      -the terms of NCL (12-2023) have been prepared in Russian in a special format for downloading into a software package for e-filing of applications for trademark registration by applicants with Rospatent, as well as into a software package for electronic record-keeping when examining trademark registration applications at Rospatent;

      - preparation of proposals concerning amendments to the NCL (12-2023) for the 33-th session of the Committee of Experts on the Nice Classification of Goods and Services for the Purposes of the Registration of Marks.

      Since 2011, a procedure of automatic electronic classification of the figurative elements of the input stream of images of national trademark and Madrid registration applications submitted from the WIPO International Office, under the sixth edition of the International Classification of Figurative Elements (Vienna Classification) of Trademarks, has been used. This was made possible in 2006 when the SILOIZ system of linguistic description and search for similarities in figurative elements was introduced, itself a sub-system of the automated system, Trademarks in force in the Russian Federation (АS TM RF).

      The results of classification as an additional service are provided to experts when examining claimed trademark designations.
