The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) has launched
the COVID-19 IP Policy Tracker, a tool that
provides information on pandemic-related IP office policy changes.
The Policy Tracker is organized by country and IP office, and
provides helpful guidance, including changes to time limits,
extensions, remote capabilities and whether the specific office is
processing new applications.
The information provided in the tracker comes from IP offices, WIPO
member states and other entities. The tracker is freely accessible
and will be updated regularly.
