The start of the sunrise period, i.e. the three month provisional application period preceding the actual start of the Unitary patent system, including the Unitary patent and the Unified Patent Court (UPC), has been postponed by two months, and is now scheduled for the 1 March 2023.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a communication from the Administrative Committee of the UPC<\/a>, the main reason for the delay is to allow users of the case management system (CMS) to prepare the strong authentication protocol needed to access the CMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All other preparatory measures for the start of the UPC and Unitary patent are still on track, and the Administrative committee does presently not foresee any further delays of the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the sunrise period it will be possible to file an \u201copt-out\u201d in respect of existing European Patents to exclude them from the jurisdiction of the UPC. Opt-outs can be filed later, but if an action has been brought before the UPC then it will not be possible to opt-out. The sunrise period therefore gives applicants and proprietors for European patent applications and patents time to consider whether to opt-out or stay within the new system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
