10.4 Procedure for Licensing an Intellectual Property Right
register administrated by the PRV. This proce- dure requires, inter alia, a written and signed request from the patentee or the assignee. In general, proof of the assignment is not required for the registration. 10.3 Requirements or Restrictions to License an Intellectual Property Right There are no formal requirements or restrictions to licensing a patent right. The patentee is free to license their right by way of an agreement. How- ever, where the patentee has granted a licence, the licensee may assign their right to others only if an agreement has been made to that effect.
There is no formal procedure for licensing a pat- ent right, and it is rare, although possible, for patent licences to be registered in the patent register.
