Regulation 79

Unless otherwise provided for in these Rules, where any document or part of a document which is in a language other than English is filed at the Registry or sent to the Registrar in pursuance of the Act or these Rules, it shall be accompanied by a translation into English of the document or that part, verified to the satisfaction of the Registrar as corresponding to the original text.

Where the document is or forms part of an application, the Registry shall not, in the absence of such a translation, take any further action in relation to that document, unless the Registrar otherwise directs.

Where more than one copy of the document referred to in paragraph (1) or (2) is required to be so filed or sent, a corresponding number of copies of the translation shall accompany it.

The Registrar may refuse to accept any translation which is in his opinion inaccurate and thereupon another translation of the document in question verified as aforesaid shall be furnished, together with the appropriate number of copies thereof.
