DESIGN / TURKEY
Design Renewal in Turkey
We handle Turkish design renewals for overseas rights holders and foreign IP firms. Send the registration number and designs to maintain so our Istanbul office can check the record and provide a renewal quotation.
MAINTAIN YOUR DESIGN
5-year periods
Check your Turkish design renewal periods.
Registered design protection runs from the filing date in five-year periods, up to 25 years in total. Ordinary renewal is generally requested in the six months before a period ends; a subsequent six-month route requires an additional fee. Check the register before acting.

Review the protection periods
Calendar estimate only. The register, any earlier renewals, expiry, non-working days and applicable fee rules determine the actual position.
THE NEXT STEP
Check the design’s current protection period.
For design renewal, specify the registration and the individual designs to be maintained. Confirm the owner and previous renewal records so the instruction preserves the intended designs rather than automatically renewing every item in a multiple registration.

PRACTICAL SERVICE GUIDE
Design renewal in Turkey: identify the designs to maintain
A design portfolio may include several designs with different commercial value. Renewal instructions should identify the exact registrations and items to maintain rather than relying only on a product name.
Choose the registrations and designs to maintain
Renew the whole portfolio or selected designs?
List the registrations and designs that remain commercially relevant. Separate references and protection periods should be checked rather than using one product name as the renewal instruction.
Which records must match?
Match the owner, design list, relevant protection period and previous payments. Confirm the applicable renewal position before arranging payment and retain the resulting record for the selected designs.
Documents to send for an assessment
- Registration reference
- owner details
- design list
- renewal reminder
- earlier payment records and any ownership changes
What our representation covers
Check the available registration record, identify the instructed designs and renewal position, arrange the agreed filing and report the resulting record.
Costs and the written quotation
The quotation depends on the designs to be maintained, registration records, timing and owner updates.
For design renewal in turkey, confirm the specific filing or response task and documents to be reviewed. The agreed quotation identifies professional work, applicable official charges, translation needs, taxes and payment currency; later stages require separate instructions.
What happens after the instructed action?
Keep renewal evidence with the design views and portfolio record. Changes to ownership or the portfolio should be considered separately where required.
Does renewal change the registered design views?
Renewal maintains the existing registered right; it is not a filing for a redesigned product. Send details of changed product appearances separately so any need for a new application can be considered.
