History

EUIPO was called The Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM) until 2016-03-23.

OHIM had some nice programs like the

  • EURONICE - European, mostly NICE compliant, product categorisation scheme in 10 languages. A standardised way of arranging product groups
  • EUROACE is a database with descriptions of goods and services that are immediately accepted by the office.

These have now been obsoleted by EUROCLASS available at TMClass.
