b) Where the applicant is not the designer, the request shall include a statement justifying the applicant‟s right to the registration of the industrial design. c) The application may contain up to one hundred industrial designs provided they all refer to products that belong to the same class of the International Classification. d) The application may contain a request that the publication of the industrial design be deferred for a specified period not exceeding 30 months from the date of filing or, if priority is claimed, from the date of priority, of the application. e) The application may, in accordance with Article 4 of the Paris Convention, contain a declaration claiming the priority of one or earlier applications filed for the same industrial design by the applicant or his predecessor in title or for any state party to the said Convention or any Member of the World Trade Organization. f) The period of priority shall be of six months and shall be computed in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 of the Paris Convention, that is from the date of filing of the first application, but shall exclude the day of filing in the six months period, and shall end on the last day of the period unless an official holiday or a day the Intellectual Property Office is not opened in which case the period shall be extended until the next working day. g) The effect of the claiming of priority shall be as provided in Article 4B of the Paris Convention. In particular, an application filed within the priority period shall not be refused or invalidated by reason of any acts occurring during that period, in particular, another filing or the publication or exploitation of the industrial design, and such acts shall not give rise to any third–party right or any right of personal possession. h) Where the application contains a declaration claiming priority, the Director General may request the applicant to furnish, within the prescribed time limit which shall not be less than three months following the date of filing, a copy of the earlier application certified as correct by the foreign authority with which it was filed. The Director General may also request that the copy be accompanied by a certificate from that authority showing the date of filing, and by a translation into a prescribed language. i) If the Director General finds that the conditions for the right of priority or the requirements for claiming priority have not been fulfilled, the declaration claiming priority shall be considered not to have been made. j) The applicant may amend or correct the application at any time during its pendency. An amendment or correction shall not be accepted if it involves a change in or addition to any of the designs contained in the initial application. k) The applicant may divide his application at any time during pendency in order to separate into two or more applications the designs contained in the initial application. A division shall not be accepted if it involves a change in or addition to any of the designs contained in the initial application. 62
