STATISTICAL TABLES<br />
The following tables present the number of international<br />
registrations and renewals in 2013, together with the number<br />
of designs they contained. Only countries or Hague<br />
members indicated as origins or designated members in<br />
2013 are reported. This includes both Hague members<br />
and non-members. The inclusion of non-members reflects<br />
the possibility for applicants to claim entitlement in a<br />
Hague member country/region even if they are domiciled<br />
in a non-member state. For instance, applicants domiciled<br />
in the US can file an international registration if they<br />
have a commercial establishment in a Hague member<br />
country/region, for example, Switzerland. In such a case,<br />
the US is listed as the country of origin. However, the US<br />
cannot be designated on an international registration,<br />
because it is not a Hague member.<br />
Tables 1 and 2 report data by origin and designated<br />
member. Using Croatia as an example, the tables can be<br />
read as follows: applicants from Croatia filed 18 international<br />
registrations containing 27 designs. The IP office of<br />
Croatia was designated in 397 international registrations<br />
containing 1,884 designs.<br />
