| Headnote: | A designation of a Contracting state is deemed to be withdrawn if the designation fee has not been paid in due time in respect of this State. Failure to pay the designation fee thus means that the initial designation of this Contracing State in an application is void ab initio and is deemed never to have taken place. Thus, there is no right to designate in a divisional application a Contracting State which was originally designated in the parent application at the time of filing, unless the original designation was subsequently validated by payment of the respective fee. | ||||||||
