A utility model is a registration granted for inventions that have novelty and applicability to industry. Since utility models are not subject to the examination phase, they result in a shorter time compared to the patent registration process and provide an advantage in terms of cost.

The utility model gives the applicant the right to use the invention and to prevent unauthorized use by third parties for 10 years.
