Patents

There were a sequence of patent offices in Norway, xyz before 1885, the Norwegian Patent Commission rom 1886-1910, and the present day Norwegian Industrial Property Office (Patentstyret) since 1911.

in 1911. It was created by a law passed on 2 July 1910.[2]

Norway had an examination system and novelty requirement.[2]

Our source for early Norwegian patents is their gazette or yearbook, the Norsk Patenter or Norsk Patent Register, on paper. We found it in a library in Trondheim. Haven't see an online version yet.

The present-day office's web site doesn't seem to give much historical information. It has a searchable patent database that doesn't seem to extend back into our period.

Norway was part of the International Union for the Protection of Industrial Property by 1915.[2]
