On July 8, 1999, the Kingdom of Morocco submitted to the WIPO the instrument for joining the Patent Cooperation Treaty.
The WIPO has accepted the application and the adhesion of Morocco to PCT will be effective as of October 8, 1999. Hence, Morocco will become the 104th member state of the PCT. Any international application made as of October 8, 1999, may designate the kingdom of Morocco. However until the now, the application for entry and the treaty have not been published in the Official Gazette; once this occurs, the PCT will become effective in Morocco.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.
