The term "industrial designs" covers industrial designs and models.
Offices which issue design patents should report their design patent information activities in this series of Annual Technical Reports.
I. GENERAL OVERVIEW OF RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN INDUSTRIAL DESIGN INFORMATION ACTIVITIES CARRIED OUT BY THE OFFICE
Information on the following topics is desired:
In 2025, the number of industrial design applications submitted to the Office is 52 applications through the national procedure (26 in 2024). All 50 applications were received from national applicants (26 in 2024), and 2 applications were from foreign applicants (Cyprus, Belarus).
During the reporting period, 35 applications for industrial design were submitted electronically (14 applications in 2024), which made up 67.31% of the total number of applications.
During the reporting period, 48 applications for industrial design were published in the prescribed manner (29 in 2023).
Within the framework of the Geneva Act of the Hague Agreement on the International Registration of Industrial Designs, according to the Republic of Armenia, 140 notifications of the international registration of industrial designs (319 with industrial designs) were received (120 notifications in 2024, with 264 industrial designs). Registrations were submitted from 18 countries.
During 2025, 33 industrial design patents (with 72 versions) were granted (27 patents in 74 versions in 2024), of which 2 industrial design patents were granted to foreign applicants.
During 2025, a positive decision was made on 141 (286 with industrial designs) notifications of international registration of industrial designs (121 positive decisions (245 with industrial designs) in 2024).
According to the data of 2025, out of 684 industrial design patents of the Republic of Armenia, 256 patents are valid in the territory of the Republic of Armenia.
