EPO’s ten day postal rule abolished
For applicants of European patent applications, the “ten day postal rule” has sometimes been a lifeline relied upon to meet deadlines. From 1 November 2023, this rule will be removed from the EPO’s Implementing Regulations. This means that we will not be able to make use of the previously available grace period offered by the 10-day rule for filing responses beyond the specified deadline. Why the change? The removal of this rule is in part due to the increased use of digital communication. The rule was introduced by the EPO when physical letters were the normal method of communication, and intended to allow for postal delivery delays and variations in postal services geographically. Any communication issued by the EPO was deemed notified to the recipient ten days later than the issue date, and any deadlines set by the notification date were then calculated from the issue date + 10 days.
