On 2 November 2020, the Indonesian government passed the "Omnibus
Bill" which included a revision on 76 laws, including also major IP
legislation.
With regard to patents, some of the most important revisions
are as follows:
-
Amendment of the use requirement. Under the
previous regulation, a patent owner was obliged to "implementing" the patented
invention by manufacturing the product or using the process within three years
from grant. This provision is still in place, but apart from production in
Indonesia, also the importation or licensing of the patented invention will be
accepted as "implementation" of the invention.
-
Amended regulations for "simple patents" (utility
models): According to the new law, the request for substantive examination for
simple patents must be submitted already on the filing day. The application
will be laid open within 14 days from filing for a period of again 14 days,
during which third parties may file a request for opposition. These amendments
shall have the effect to shorten the pendency period from filing to grant from
previously 12 to 6 months from filing
