On June 15, 2016, the payment counter of the Chilean Official Gazette of the National Institute of Industrial Property (INAPI) will stop working and payment of the publication fees for patents, utility models and industrial designs will need to be made online, at the INAPI mailbox or at the Official Gazette headquarters.

The online tool for the payment of publication fees for patents, utility models and industrial designs will be added to the current online platform for the payment of publication fees for trademarks at www.diarioficial.cl.

With this change, payment of fees for the publication of patents, trademarks, geographic indications and denominations of origins in the Official Gazette will all share the same payment methods.
