IP Information and fact sheets
IP Australia suggests businesses develop an IP strategy for each country in which they intend to trade and to seek assistance from IP professionals experienced in, or with good contacts, in those countries.
Japan is Australia's largest export market and is currently our second-largest trading partner, behind China. Below are fact sheets providing basic information to help develop an IP strategy for Japan. They refer to patents and industrial designs, trade marks, plant breeder's rights, copyright and other information about the IP system in Japan. As usual, starting out early to apply for protection of IP rights and developing knowledge of the IP system are preferred options to protect against potential problems arising in the Japanese marketplace.
