As of 1st July 2014, 10 out of 11 participating Offices have already implemented the necessary operational and technical changes to offer the new Access Code procedure, enabling applicants to indicate on the application form the access code and request the OSF to retrieve the document. The Danish Patent and Trademark Office is the only office which operates DAS services as a depositing Office only.
As of 1st January 2015, the termination of the transitional period of DAS will be effective. It will not be possible to give access permissions to Offices by setting up Access Control List (ACL) via the DAS portal. The DAS web portal will be revised to provide tracking facilities to view details of the access history of your priority documents by Offices. The new version of the DAS web portal will be made available on December 19, 2014.
