Book excerpt: Excerpt from Basic Patent and Trade-Mark Laws of the Principal Belligerent Powers: Together With War Legislation, Ordinances, and Edicts Since August 1, 1914, to January 1, 1919, Affecting Patents, Trade-Marks, Designs Consequently, they shall have the same protection as the latter and the same legal remedies against any infringements of their rights, provided they comply with the formalities and requirements imposed by the national laws of each State upon its own citizens. Any obligation of domicile or of establishment in the country where the protection is claimed shall not be imposed on the members of the Union. Art. 3. The subjects or citizens of countries which do not form part of the Union, who are domiciled or own effective and bonafide industrial or commercial establishments in the territory of any of the countries of the Union, shall be assimilated to the subjects or citizens of the contracting countries. Art. 4. (a) Any person who shall have duly filed an application for a patent, utility model, industrial design or model, or trade-mark, in one of the contracting countries, or the successor or assignee of such person shall enjoy, for the purpose of filing application in the other countries, and subject to the rights of third parties, a right of priority during the periods hereinafter specified. (b) Consequently, the subsequent filing in one of the other countries of the Union, prior to the expiration of such periods, shall not be invalidated by acts performed in the interval, especially by another application by publication of the invention or the working of the same, by the sale of copies or the design or model, nor by the use of the mark. (c) The periods of priority above referred to shall be twelve months for patents and models of utility, and four months for industrial designs and models, as also for trade-marks. (d) Whoever shall wish to avail himself of the priority of an anterior filing shall be required to make a declaration showing the date and the country of this filing. Each country shall determine at what moment, at the latest, this declaration must be executed. This information shall be mentioned in the publications issued by the competent Administration, particularly on patents and the specifications relative thereto. The contracting countries shall require of one who makes a declaration of priority the production of a copy of the application (specification, drawings, etc.) previously filed, certified to be a true copy by the Administration which shall have received it. This copy shall be dispensed from any legalization. It may be required that it be accompanied by a certificate of the date of filing, issuing from this Administration, and of a translation. Other formalities shall not be required for the declaration of priority at the time of the filing of the application.
