INFORMATION FROM THE EPO
Notice concerning closure of European Patent Office cash offices
On 10 December 1998, the Administrative Council of the European Patent Organisation adopted an amendment to Article 5 of the Rules relating to Fees (see OJ EPO 1999, 5). As a result it will no longer be possible, with effect from 2 March 1999, to pay fees in cash at EPO cash desks. The cash offices in Munich (Isar building), The Hague and Berlin will therefore be closed as from 2 March 1999.
