Request portal access
  1. Request portal access

    Tell us about your firm and the filing services you need.

  2. Receive your invitation and set up your account

    After reviewing your request, we invite your firm to set up its account. Portal access is activated before you can submit filing instructions.

  3. Prepare your application

    Select the service in the portal, enter the required information and save a draft if needed.

  4. Review and submit your instructions

    Check the application details, fees and scope of service. Saving a draft does not place an order.

  5. Acceptance of your instructions

    We review your submitted instructions and confirm acceptance of the mandate before filing the application.

  6. Filing, invoice and reports

    We handle and file your application based on your instructions. After filing, we email our report, the application number and the filing receipt. We issue your invoice after filing. Once it has been paid, we pay the official fees. We report on registration and send the certificate. The stated forwarding fee, including translation and recording and monitoring the deadline, applies to each official communication involving a deadline. Responses and representation in opposition proceedings are separate services.

Choose the language that suits you best from the languages available in our Filing Portal. The interface language does not determine the procedural or correspondence language.

Reports for your matter file

You receive the filing report with the application number and filing receipt and, following registration, the registration report and certificate.

Frequently asked questions

Does saving a draft place an order?

No. You can first prepare the information as a draft. Instructions are submitted at the designated step in the portal.

Can I provide a specification in another language?

Yes. Select the language of the supplied specification in the portal. Required translations into the relevant procedural language are charged at €10 per class.

How do I instruct an urgent filing?

For urgent filings, please agree the required filing date with us in advance.

Does placing an order guarantee registration?

No. The competent office decides on the application. Official objections and third-party rights may affect registration.

In which language will we receive your emails?

Our email correspondence is bilingual: in English or German, together with your preferred language.
