The Trademark Information Service and the Design Information Service of the Finnish Patent and Registration Office have been revamped
Our information services for trademarks and designs have been revamped. After the revamp, our customers can more easily access register details about both trademarks and designs through the respective services.
The Finnish Patent and Registration Office (PRH) maintains the national Finnish Trademark Register and Designs Register. We have modernised the user interface technology for both the Trademark Information Service and the Design Information Service, increased the data content of the Trademark Information Service and introduced improvements to the services suggested by our customers.
The new user interface makes the services simpler to use than before. The new technology also helps to maintain the services during their entire lifespan. Thanks to the revamp, our customers have better opportunities to run searches independently in our databases and access register details about trademarks and design rights respectively through a single service.
The new information services were introduced on 17 December 2020. Using the services is free of charge.

We offer our customers advisory services and courses. We give information about companies, organizations, corporations and immaterial rights.
Our office is an International Searching Authority (ISA) and International Preliminary Examining Authority (IPEA) for international PCT patent applications.
Our office comes under the administrative sector of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment (MEAE), and we negotiate each year with the MEAE on our performance targets. Our office is subject to net budgeting, meaning that about 95% of our expenses are covered by the income we make from our services.
