This document is a formal application to the Controller of Patents in India for name restoration. It contains specific fields for the applicant's name, address, and the date their name was removed from the Register. It is not an initial application for registration or a standard renewal form.
When should you use it?
Use this form when a patent agent's name has been struck off the official register due to non-payment of fees or other administrative reasons. Use Form 22 instead for an initial registration application.
