Regulations on Intellectual Property Rights Designs The Intellectual Property Office of Singapore administers the intellectual property legislative framework in Singapore, which includes designs, trademarks and patents. Singapore is a member of the main international conventions regulating intellectual property matters, and the WTO’s Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights. The Registered Designs Act 2000 of Singapore confers protection on registrable designs in Singapore, and the registered owner is granted exclusive rights to the external appearance of the article or non -physicalproduct and has the right to control its use. There are two (2) key criteria for registration: the subject matter must be (i) a “design”, which means features of shape, configuration, colors, pattern or ornament applied to any article or non -physicalproduct that gives that article or non -physicalproduct its appearance, and (ii) “new”, being a design that is not the same as a design that has been registered or published in Singapore or elsewhere. An infringement of a registered design may give rise to civil liabilities. Registered designs will last for an initial period of 5 years and may be renewed for a second and third period of 5 years, subject to application for an extension and the payment of extension fees. 128 Trade Marks The Trade Marks Act 1998 of Singapore confers statutory protection on registrable trademarks on a first -to -filebasis in Singapore, and the registered proprietor is granted a statutory monopoly of the trade mark in Singapore in relation to the product or service for which it is registered.
