Utility model: ten-year term
A Turkish utility model has a ten-year statutory term from filing, subject to the applicable fee obligations.
Türkiye: practical decision and evidence
A Turkish utility model has a ten-year statutory term from filing, subject to the applicable fee obligations. Record the filing date and official status; payment does not extend the term beyond ten years or remove excluded subject matter.
Worked file: a utility model was filed ten years ago and its owner supplies a recent payment receipt. Match the receipt to the official number and register history, then calculate the statutory end from filing. Record payment as an event, not as a new ten-year grant.
What a utility model protects
A Turkish utility model concerns qualifying technical subject matter and has its own eligibility and exclusion rules. Test novelty and the proposed claims before filing. It is not automatic protection for every invention that fails an inventive-step assessment.
Patent or utility model
A utility model and a patent have different statutory requirements, exclusions and terms in Türkiye. Compare the technical subject matter before selecting a route. A faster or cheaper filing is not a substitute for checking whether the invention qualifies for that form of protection.
Patent annual fees
Patent maintenance needs a calendar linked to filing dates and the applicable annual-fee year. Verify the current official tariff and payment record. Payment to an intermediary does not prove that the office received the correct fee for the correct patent.
Official filing and support
This guidance concerns Turkish rights unless a section expressly names another jurisdiction. Kayra can coordinate research, document preparation and follow-up. Registration, opposition and grant decisions belong to the competent office. Verify any required representative’s registration and authority before appointing them; court proceedings require appropriately qualified legal representation. The enquiry form requests consultancy, and does not itself file an official application.
