Please note that before the initial filing of the design application we absolutely require:

1. The complete applicant’s and creator’s data (name, address and nationality).
2. The complete data concerning the priority, (number, date of the filing).
3. A set of original photographs of the design(s) in quadruplicate (their dimensions may not exceed 16x16 cm.
   
   The photographs may be in black and white or in color), or a set of the formal drawings. Please note that the Greek Law on Design Protection allows for photographs, which are only susceptible to "offset" reproduction.
   

The following documents are required for completing the file:

1. The certified priority document.
2. A declaration, reflecting the relation between the applicant and the creator of the design, which must be certified by Notary Public or legalized by Apostille.
3. A Power of Attorney simply signed by the applicant.

Please note that various figures of each design (i.e. various views thereof) are not considered as separate designs.

Requirements for an assignment against a design in Greece:

1. We need either a copy of the original assignment document or a Notarial assignment deed.
2. The required document must be signed by both parties and the assignor’s signature must be certified by Apostille.
3. The assignment document must include an express reference to the patent or design in question. We can obtain blank assignment deed forms from the associate’s website.
4. A Power of Attorney simply stamped and signed by the authorized signatory of the Assignee. We can also obtain blank power of attorney forms from the associate’s website.

Please note that the documents to be submitted to the Greek Patent Office must be translated in Greek. However, in order to minimize the expenses, we always translate the documents only partially.
