German Design Protection
National protection for your product's appearance in Germany, registered with the DPMA.
National design protection
A registered design (eingetragenes Design) with the DPMA protects the appearance of a product across Germany. Multiple designs can often be filed together in a single collective application.
How our agents handle it
Agents prepare the representations, classify under the Locarno system, and file with the DPMA, with attorney oversight where legal judgment is needed.
Fees and what's next
Official DPMA design fees apply and are paid to the office. Our flat service fee is €199 net. Protection can be extended abroad via the Hague System.
