The Registered Community Design has been rebranded. Europe now has the Registered European Union Design and a brand new symbol – Ⓓ. Cloe Loo and William Doherty, Directors at Albright IP discuss the main changes to the EU registration process, and how that differs from non-EU practice within Europe. We also look forwards towards the July 2026 reforms for more big changes, and how you can prepare now.
