Closed for Good Friday & Easter Monday

Our Office will be closed from Friday 10 April 2009 to Monday 13 April 2009.

Our website will be available 24/7 throughout this period. All applications made online between Friday 10 April 2009 and Monday 13 April 2009 will receive a filing date of 14 April 2009.

Please note - If information about a design or an invention for which an application is to be made, is published prior to the official filing date it may invalidate the registration or patent. If a design or patent application is submitted online on an official closed day, such as on a weekend or Waitangi Day it would be prudent to wait until the next open day before publishing details of the design or invention.
