Note
(1) For trademarks, filings refer to the number of classes specified in applications.
(2) For industrial designs, filings refer to number of designs contained in applications.
(3) Statistics are produced regardless of whether the home office of the applicants supplied statistics or not. An asterisk symbol indicates that the home IP office did not supply statistics.
(4) Statistics relating to "technical fields" are extracted from the Patstat database and are based on the publication date.
(5) The indicator "resident applications per million population" is available for countries with a polulation greater than one million. The "indicator per GDP" is available for countries whose total GDP exceeds 10 billion US Dollar.
(6) Shares of the top foreign destinations are based on absolute count of applications, that is, one application filed at a regional office is counted as one application only.
(7) One application filed at the Eurasian Patent Organization, the African Intellectual Property Organization, the Benelux Office for Intellectual Property, the European Union Intellectual Property Office or the Patent Office of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf is multiplied
by the corresponding number of member states. One application filed at the European Patent Office or the African Regional Intellectual Property Organization is counted as one application abroad if the applicant does not reside in a respective member state, or as one resident application
and one application abroad if the applicant resides in a respective member state.
(8) Percentage with a plus or minus symbol indicates the percentage change from the previous year.
(9) Both national and regional data are used to establish the list of countries relating to non-resident filings.
