→A new bnt survey reveals that significant differences in IP rules persist among the CEE countries surveyed despite the increased harmonization brought about by European and international laws and conventions.
The most significant differences include design protection terms, which vary from 5-10 years, accession to particular international conventions, and the ability to register odors, colors, sounds, and 3D marks.
Perhaps of most practical importance are differences in registration fees and filing procedures. For instance, the trademark registration fee in Hungary is more than double the fee in Poland and more than four times the fee in Latvia. Additionally, a registration process that takes only 10 months in the Czech Republic or Lithuania will take up to two years in Poland or Belarus.
