Data notes & caveats

One Hague application may contain multiple designs, so these values should not be relabelled as application-form counts.

Methodology

The ranking uses WIPO counts of designs contained in Hague international applications by sovereign applicant origin for 2024. Nations are ordered from highest to lowest using the unrounded design counts.

Source consistency notes

All entries use the same Hague System origin, 2024 period and design-count definition.
