International Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property |
Secured interests in property, both chattel and real,
are recognized and enforced. Mortgages are quite common for both residential and
commercial property and leasing as a means of financing is widespread and
efficient.
The legal system protects and facilitates acquisition and disposition of
all property rights, including land, buildings and mortgages. The long and
complicated process of restitution is almost complete, including the area of
non-residential real properties.
The Estonian legal system adequately protects property rights, including
intellectual property, patterns, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and
industrial design. Estonia adheres to the Berne Convention, WIPO and TRIPS, the
Rome Convention and the Geneva Convention on the Protection of the Rights of
Producers. Estonian legislation fully complies with EU directives granting
protection to authors, performing artists, record producers, and broadcasting
organizations. In 2002 Estonia withdrew its reservation on Article 12 of the
Rome Convention, thus extending equal treatment to domestic and foreign
phonogram producers. (Note: However, because the U.S. is not a member of the
Rome convention, equal treatment is not extended to U.S. phonogram producers
under this agreement.
