Frequently Asked Questions on IP Law in Peru
Essential Guidance for International Companies, Inventors, and Patent Applicants in Peru
How do patent services in Peru work for foreign applicants?
Foreign applicants can enter the Peruvian national phase via the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) within 30 months from the priority date, or file directly claiming Paris Convention priority within 12 months. Our patent attorneys in Peru handle the complete process: formal examination, publication in the Official Gazette, patentability examination, and response to office actions before INDECOPI.
What is the difference between an invention patent and a design patent in Peru?
An invention patent protects the functional and technical novelty of a product or process for 20 years. In contrast, industrial designs (often called design patents internationally) protect the novel ornamental and aesthetic appearance of an object for 10 years. An experienced design patent attorney in Peru ensures proper classification and robust claims to prevent copies.
Why hire a dedicated copyright attorney in Peru?
A specialized copyright attorney in Peru secures official registration with INDECOPI's Copyright Directorate, establishes clear chain of title, drafts software licensing and assignment agreements, and enforces anti-infringement measures against piracy and unauthorized digital distribution.
