COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

**Brussels, 27.03.1995**

COM(95) 92 final

**Recommendation for a**

**TOT** **INCH,** **DECISION**

**authorizing** **the signing, on behalf of the** **European^Community**
**of** **the** **Trademark Law Treaty adopted in Geneva on 27 October** **1994**
**under the auspices of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO)**

**(presented by the Commission)**

**EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM**

**On 27 October 1994 the Diplomatic Conference specially convened for the purpose**
**adopted the Trademark Law Treaty drawn up under the auspices of the World Intellectual**
**Property Organization (WIPO). The Treaty will remain open for signature at WIPO's**
**headquarters until 27 October** **1995.**

**The European Community, represented by the Commission, took part in the Diplomatic**
**Conference as a special delegation. By Council decision of 19 September 1994 the**
**Commission was authorized to negotiate those aspects of the Treaty affecting the**
**Community trade mark and the Community's participation in the** **Treaty.** **On**
**28 October 1994 it signed the Final Act of the Diplomatic Conference but did not sign**
**the Treaty** **itself.**

**On 16 December** **1994** **the Final Act was signed by 68 delegations and the Treaty by**
**39 countries, including nine Member States. A number of important trading partners of**
**the Community, including the United States, the Russian Federation and China,** **also**
**signed the Treaty.**

**INTEREST** **OF** **THE** **COMMUNITY** _**m**_ **THE TRADEMARK LAW TREATY**

**The Treaty concerns the Community because it is applicable to the Community trade**
**mark and to the Alicante Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (trade** **marks**
**and designs). However, at the present stage of Community harmonization it is for the**
**Member States to decide on the applicability or otherwise of** **thé** **Treaty to their own trade**
**marks and national offices.**

**The Trademark Law Treaty simplifies procedures considerably in that it:**

**•** **limits the number of documents which the applicant for a trade mark must furnish to**
**the competent office;**

**•** **will** **ultimately abolish the obligation** **on** **the part of the applicant to have his signature**
**authenticated or** **certified** **by a public authority in the State in which the trade mark is**
**being applied for;**

**•** **introduces standard forms mutually recognized by all Contracting Parties.**

**This** **simplification** **should lead to a considerable reduction in the costs borne by**
**Community industry** **in** **third** **countries when** **registering, renewing or assigning trade**
**marks. Community industry has always supported the Treaty.**

**The Treaty is compatible with, and complementary to, the TRIPs (trade-related aspects**
**of intellectual property rights) Agreement.**

#### **_1_**

**One issue that came to the fore during the Diplomatic Conference was that of the**
**Community's separate voting rights.** **[1 ]**

**The approach adopted in the Treaty is satisfactory from the Community's point of view.**
**By contrast to what was provided for in the draft Treaty (document TLT/DC/3 of**
**28 March** **1994),** **the Assembly consisting of Contracting Parties has not been set** **up.** **The**
**need to provide for a right to vote in the Assembly has thus disappeared. None of the**
**Contracting Parties will have a right to vote.**

**The Treaty may be revised following a diplomatic conference the holding of which will**
**be decided on when the time comes by the WIPO General Assembly. The question of the**
**Community's separate voting rights would then arise once more.**

**POSSIBILITY** **FOR THE COMMUNITY TO BECOME PARTY** **TO** **THE** **TREATY**

**Under Article 19(l)(ii) of the Trademark Law Treaty, the European Community may**
**become a Contracting Party.** **[2]** **It would be premature at this stage for the Council to**
**conclude the Treaty. Measures need to be taken to ensure that the rules governing the**
**Community trade mark and the Alicante Office comply with it. And before that, the**
**measures already envisaged with a view to enabling the Alicante Office to become fully**
**operational must all be adopted. Only then will it be possible to consider concluding the**
**Treaty on behalf of the Community.**

**On the other hand, it is of the utmost importance in the light of the above that the**
**Community should sign the Treaty before the 27 October 1995 deadline. Its signature**
**would bear witness to the importance it attaches to trade marks and to simplification of**
**the relevant procedures, and it might induce other States to follow suit.**

**By helping to create an environment favourable to the Trademark Law Treaty, the**
**Community would pave the way for broad participation in the Treaty in accordance with**
**the wishes and economic interests of Community industry.**

**See doc. SEC (94) 950 final of** **13** **June** **1994.**

**Article** **19(1)** **: "The following entities may sign and, subject to paragraphs (2) and (3) and Article**
**20(1) and (3), become party to this Treaty:...**

**(ii) any intergovernmental organization which maintains an Office in which marks may be registered**
**with effect in the territory in which the constituting treaty of the intergovernmental organization**
**applies, in all its member States or in those of its member States which are designated for such**
**purpose in the relevant application, provided that all the member States of the intergovernmental**
**organization are members of the Organization;...".**

**2-**

**CONCLUSION**

**It** **should accordingly be proposed to the Council that it decide to sign, subject to**
**approval, the Trademark Law Treaty on behalf of the European Community. To that end,**
**the President of the Council will be authorized to appoint persons to** **sign** **the Treaty**
**before the deadline of 27 October 1995.**

**DECISION**

**The decision of the Council of the European Union will take the form of a statement in**
**the minutes of one of** **its** **meetings.**

_**"At**_ _**its meeting**_ _**on...,**_ _**the Council of the European**_ _**Union**_ _**decided :**_
