In Australia, the acquisition of patent application for design is divided into two parts: registration and certification. Both of these are required to legally exercise design rights. After IP Australia's 8-week preliminary review of the design, the design patent will obtain a patent certificate. If you want to exercise the design patent right, you must go through 13 weeks of IP Australia's review and reply, and you will be certified after passing.

If the disclosure is caused by the inventor or the information source of the discloser is the inventor; or if the disclosure occurs again after being disclosed by the above-mentioned subject, the patent enjoys a novelty grace period within 12 months before the filing date/priority date.
