Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get a software copyright registered at the Russian Patent Office?
The examination process usually takes 62 business days. Sometimes it happens faster, but currently there is no guaranteed way to speed it up.
How are the novelty and uniqueness of a piece of software verified during the examination process?
The novelty and uniqueness of the software are not verified at all. Any program containing at least several lines of a computer code can be registered. Registration is made in a declarative manner, all information filed by the applicant is accepted by the Russian Patent Office “as is”.
If a piece of software is created by a company’s employees — who is the rights holder?
In the event that a piece of software is developed as part of an employee’s standard workload, or as part of an official task implementation, the exclusive rights to this software belong to the employing company. If an employee created it in their free time without using any technical means that belong to the company, and it has nothing to do with their official duties — the rights to this software belong to this employee.
How big is the govt registration fee?
₽4,500 (≈$50) for a legal entity, and ₽3,000 (≈35) for an individual.
If the application is filed by several parties, they pay a fee in equal shares.
Is it necessary to pay maintenance fees?
No, software copyright registration does not require maintenance fee payments to keep the certificate valid. The term of legal protection of a piece of software is 70 years from the date of death of the last one of the
Will it be a violation of my rights if someone rewrites my pice of software in another language?
When you register software copyright, you get legal protection for a specific piece of code, not for the algorithms underlying it. In this regard, if someone rewrites your program in another programming language, it will not violate your exclusive rights.
