PRV only conducts formality examination on design patents. After the design is officially submitted to the PRV, no modification or addition of other designs is allowed. An applicant may request a deferment of publication for up to 6 months from the filing date/priority date, and this request must be made at the same time as the new application is filed.
If the design is disclosed by the designer or his representative within 12 months before the filing date, the design will not lose its novelty.
