Forms

Here you will find an overview of our forms. We recommend that you use the form in Altinn if possible.

No Norwegian national identity number?

We offer a secure electronic solution in Altinn for users who do not have a Norwegian social security number or D-number.

Once you have created a user account, we will send all communication regarding both existing and new cases to the same Altinn account. It is therefore important that you use the email address where you wish to receive all communication from the Norwegian Industrial Property Office when creating the account.

Find the form that applies to you and follow the link. Click “Start service”, then choose “International” and “Email login” as your login method.

Form - Preliminary search service

We search registers and databases to determine whether other patent and trademark rights may pose an obstacle to your innovation, or help you identify other relevant information tailored to your needs.

Where to find messages, completed forms and work in progress

After receiving an e-mail alert from us, you will find our message in your inbox in Altinn.

Note that each message has two due dates: 

  • You find the actual due date for replying to our letter once you open the message.
  • The shorter due date you see on the right hand side of the message before opening it, is for sending you a reminder if you have not opened the message by this date.

In your inbox, you will also find forms that you are still working on (not completed or sent to the NIPO). You will find forms (and receipts) that you have submitted in your archive (on the left hand side in your inbox).

The Norwegian Industrial Property Office (NIPO) only accept an electronic signature from Altinn.
