开曼群岛：新设计权法

# 开曼群岛：新设计权法

斯普尔和费舍尔
- 15 3 月 2019

### 开曼群岛正在制定新的设计权立法。 2019 年设计权法案（法案）于 2019 年 2 月 19 日发布，将取代现行立法，即 2016 年设计权注册法。

该法案涉及开曼群岛外观设计权保护的现代化，因此是一个受欢迎的发展。目前尚不清楚该法案何时生效。

现行立法规定延长在英国持有的外观设计权。该法案生效后，将不再需要首先在英国注册外观设计权。

在该法案中，“*设计'* 被定义为物品的整体或部分的形状或构型（无论是内部的还是外部的）。该法案的条文适用于套件，即旨在组装成物品的完整或基本完整的一组组件，其适用方式与适用于已组装物品的方式相同。

在可注册性方面，有一些例外情况，即：

- 一种构造方法或原理

- 一个物品的形状或构型的特征，使该物品能够连接到或放置在另一个物品中、围绕或抵靠另一个物品，以便任何一个物品都可以执行其功能，或者取决于该物品所属的另一个物品的外观设计师打算形成一个组成部分

- 表面装饰

新颖性要求是设计必须是原创的。如果一项设计在其创作时在相关设计领域中是司空见惯的，则该设计将不是原创的。

外观设计权的所有人拥有为商业目的复制该外观设计的专有权，通过制作该外观设计的物品，或通过制作记录该设计的设计文件来制作此类物品。通过根据设计制作物品来复制设计被定义为复制该设计以完全或实质上根据该设计生产物品。

所有者的专有权有例外情况，以下情况不侵犯设计权：

- 私人和非商业目的的行为

- 为实验目的而做出的行为

- 出于教学目的或以引用为目的的复制行为，前提是该复制行为符合实践，并且不会过度损害设计的正常利用，并提及来源

有一项规定涉及设计中版权和设计权可能重叠的问题。

在程序方面，申请语言是英语，在线申请不是一种选择（尽管这显然会被考虑）。考试仅限于手续。注册期限为自该设计首次记录在设计文件中或首次制造该设计的日历年年底起计 15 年，以先发生者为准。年金应在每年的 1 月，即初次注册的年份之后支付——有一个宽限期，需缴纳附加费。在外观设计权的最后五年内，任何人都有权（自权利起）获得许可，以进行任何可能侵犯外观设计权的行为。

有过渡条款。自生效之日起，根据被废除的法律登记的现有设计权将转移到新的登记簿，并且在被废除的法律规定的续展日期之前，它们将被视为已注册，除非采取措施取消设计对。至于在生效日期由法院或司法常务官审理的任何事项，除非条例草案另有规定，否则将继续根据已废除的条文处理。
