Each Contracting Party shall accept that the request for the correction of a mistake which was made in the application or other request communicated to the Office and which mistake is reflected in its register of marks and/or any publication by the Office be made by the holder in a communication indicating the registration number of the registration concerned, the mistake to be corrected and the correction to be entered.

(b)

Any Contracting Party may require that the request indicate

(i)

the name and address of the holder;

(ii)

where the holder has a representative, the name and address of that representative;

(iii)

where the holder has an address for service, such address.

(c)

Any Contracting Party may require that, in respect of the request, a fee be paid to the Office.

Paragraph (1) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, where the mistake concerns an application or applications, or both an application or applications and a registration or registrations, provided that, where the application number of any application concerned has not yet been issued or is not known to the applicant or its representative, the request otherwise identifies that application as prescribed in the Regulations.
