As of August 27, 2025, Mauritius has officially joined the Harare Protocol under the African Regional Intellectual Property Organization (ARIPO).
This significant development enables:
- Protection of patents, utility models, and industrial designs through ARIPO filings
- Designation of Mauritius in existing and future regional applications
Note: This accession does not affect trademark procedures in Mauritius, which continue to be governed under national law.
Impact: Applicants seeking regional protection across Africa now have the opportunity to include Mauritius in their ARIPO filings for broader IP coverage.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.
