For domestic process CIPO only uses the Serial Number (paragraph 5(d)), however within the WIPO XML standards CIPO will format the number following ST.13. It is noted CIPO does not use a year designation (paragraph 5(c)) however follows the 5(c) recommendation and includes zeros in its place.

An application number contains 13 digits of numerals with one decimal point as separator.

year: positions 1-4;

code for the type of IP rights: position 5;

serial number: positions 6-12;

2. If the answer was "Partly", please explain your Office's/Organization's practice briefly:

Paragraph 5a requires a fixed length of 15 characters, with nine for the serial number. Our numbers have a length of 12 characters, composed identically to the standard, but with only 6 digits for the serial number.

Paragraph 5b reserves a numeric region for type codes of utility model related applications to 22-29. Our type code for topographies, which do not belong to utility models, is 22 instead of in the 30-89 region.

Paragraph 5d preferably requires a serial number of 9 digits. Ours has 6 digits. Furthermore, the control digit is not part of our serial number (nor of the application number), but separated by a ‘.’ after the serial number.

4. Comments (optional)

The standard came into force only a few years after all systems had been adapted to our new application numbering code. An additional change to our codes, in order to become completely compliant with the standard, would result in an enormous effort. As we do not consider the deviance from the standard as crucial for understanding our application numbers, no changes to our application numbers are planned for the near or mid future.

This Standard covers application numbers for all types of IPR applications, such as applications for patents, utility models, designs and trademarks. It does not apply to intellectual property rights such as copyright. An indispensable part of the application number should consist of the following three elements: a code for the type of industrial property right, a year designation and a serial number.

The application number should have a fixed length of 15 characters, composed of two digits for the type, four digits for the year and nine digits for the serial number.

Examples of application numbers:

Trademarks - 6 characters. (003040)

Industrial designs  - 9 characters. (f 2004 0020)

Inventions - 9 characters. (a 2004 0020)

Desde la implementación de los sistemas informáticos a finales de los 90, se había venido trabajando con numeraciones que se reiniciaban cada 1 de enero, a partir de 2001 se maneja un correlativo compuesto por CCYYnnnnnn; para los identificar los diferentes tipos de documentos que se presentan se maneja independientemente un código de 3 caracteres, para marcas (D01=Marca; D02=Nombre Comercial, D03=Expresión o señal de publicidad); para patentes se maneja un código de 4 digitos (2311=Patentes de Invención, 2312=Modelo de Utilidad, 2313=Diseño Industrial).

El cambiar la forma de llevar la numeración de las solicitudes depende de las altas autoridades
