Ordering certified copies of designs: what changes for you?

From 6 August 2026, a new ordering method for the certified copy will be introduced. The copy itself will also look different. We are doing this to make the ordering and the payment process clearer and more convenient for you. Below you can read more about what this change means for you.

How to order a certified copy

  • Go to the Designs Register or the designs overview and click on ‘Details’. It is important that you are logged in. 
  • Select the type (where applicable), the quantity and the language. 
  • You can then add copies of other designs.
  • Check your order, then proceed with payment.

You will receive confirmation of your order immediately by email. We aim to dispatch your order by post within 3 working days.

Good to know

  • You can order copies of designs with a filing date on or after 1 January 2016.
  • Designs that have not yet been registered (published) can only be ordered by the holder or the appointed representative.
  • Your order will be sent to the address we have. Please always check your address details in your account before making payment.
  • The layout of the copy has been updated and brought into line with the confirmation of receipt and certificates of registration. 
  • The copy has been drawn up in the language of the application. You can order a copy in another language. Please note that some fields, such as the product indication, will be displayed in the original language.
  • We no longer process orders placed via the contact form. You can only use the new ordering method.
  • However, you can continue to submit requests for ‘other’ copies, such as a copy of a deed of assignment, via our contact form.
  • You can now also order certified copies of trademarks via My BOIP; you can do this via ‘My Trademarks’.
