Details

You should use this form to notify the Intellectual Property Office (IPO) of a relevant marketing authorisation granted after your initial application for a Supplementary Protection Certificate (SPC). A relevant authorisation relates to the same product as the original application, but covers additional territory (Great Britain, Northern Ireland or the United Kingdom). This notification should be submitted within 6 months of the grant of the further authorisation and before the SPC takes effect. This notification is required for the SPC to provide protection in the additional territory, as set out in Article 13A of Regulations 469/2009 and 1610/96.
