Patenting in Georgia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Ukraine – what international applicants need to know
We look at common features, key risks and recent updates shaping patent protection across these four Eurasian countries.
This Christmas we have made a donation to the scholarship fund for graduate students in Tapiola High School, Espoo, Finland, and to The Federation of Mother and Child Homes and Shelters.
Kindly note that our head office in Helsinki will be closed for Christmas on Monday 26 December 2016. In case of any urgent new filings to our Eurasian countries (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan or Uzbekistan) during this time, you can contact Mr Teemu Lang, CDO, on +358 40 576 3796 or by email: teemu.lang@papula-nevinpat.com.
We wish you all happy holidays and a successful year 2017!

Read the article about Ukraine resuming the IP system.
Please be informed that on 16 April 2025, the Ukrainian Parliament adopted a new law that cancels the special wartime IP rules enacted in 2022. These rules temporarily suspended various deadlines and extended IP rights during the martial law period. The new law will enter into force 30 days after its official publication, following signature by the President of Ukraine.
We are excited to announce that Papula-Nevinpat has won the Finland Patent Prosecution Firm of the Year at the Managing IP EMEA Awards 2025!
