  • History of Design Protection in Japan

    Yabumoto M., History of Design and Design Law an International and Interdisciplinary Perspective, 2022.01

     View Summary

    The history of the Japanese design protection system, dating back to 1888, was a history of adapting to international standards for design protection due to the development of domestic industry and the expansion of product export. The current design protection system in Japan is based on the Ishōhō [Design Act] of 1959. Since 1998, the scale and frequency of revisions have increased. This chapter outlines this history—from the Meiji period through to the 2019 amendments of the Design Act—focusing mainly on the expansion of the scope of design rights.
