It is now possible to amend the statement of goods/services for an IR through IP Australia, rather than just deleting items.
Previously, IP Australia would only delete goods (e.g. âcars and trucksâ to âcarsâ) but would not allow an amendment (eg âmotor vehiclesâ to âmotor vehicles excluding trucksâ or to âcarsâ). An amendment formerly had to be requested through the IB, which was very inconvenient.
This practice is now changing. Note, however, that amendment is only possible if the goods/services in question have caused a provisional refusal.
