This forms part of the IPOs commitment under its Welsh language scheme to provide as many services as possible in both Welsh and English, enabling customers to access these services in the language they choose.

The translation programme has seen teams at the IPO including Welsh-speaking staff work with the Government Digital Service (GDS) to create Welsh language content for the IPOs website.

Beginning with the trademark applications service, the next phase will see the IPO focus on translating its most popular services and most visited website content into Welsh.

With the process of applying for, renewing or researching a patent, trademark or design registration set to become fully digital through the One IPO transformation programme, customers using these new online services will also be able to complete their transaction in Welsh if they choose.

The multi-phase project to translate our services will help our Welsh speaking customers engage with the IP system in the language of their choice.
