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
 ---pagebreak---  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.

    Article 19(1) : "The following entities may sign and, subject to paragraphs (2) and (3) and Article

   with effect in the territory in which the constituting treaty of the intergovernmental organization

   purpose in the relevant application, provided that all the member States of the intergovernmental

 ---pagebreak--- 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
