The Council of the European Union adopted the 14th toolbox of sanctions affecting the intellectual property of Russian applicants and copyright holders. The European Union Intellectual Property Offices are prohibited from accepting applications for registration of intellectual property from Russian citizens, individuals and legal entities registered and residing in Russia. The ban also applies to applications submitted by foreigners together with Russians.

EU offices do not have the ability to ignore Russian applications submitted through the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO), and unfounded refusals can be challenged administratively or in court. In this regard, Russian individuals and companies are recommended to use the WIPO international registration systems to submit applications. The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) - for inventions, Madrid System - for trademarks and service marks, the Hague system - for industrial designs, Lisbon System - for geographical indications and appellations of origin. An application for registration of intellectual property within the international WIPO systems must be submitted through the Federal Service for Intellectual Property.
