Article 12 The duration of protection for layout-design exclusive rights is ten years starting from the date of application for registration of the layout-design or from the date of putting it into commercial exploitation somewhere in the world, whichever is the earlier date. However, a layout-design, whether or not it is registered or put into commercial exploitation, is not protected under the Regulations after fifteen years of its invention.

第十三条 布图设计专有权属于自然人的，该自然人死亡后，其专有权在本条例规定的保护期内依照继承法的规定转移。

Article 13 Where a layout-design exclusive rights are owned by a natural person, the exclusive rights are transferred according to the provisions of the Inheritance Law within the duration of protection under the Regulation after the natural person passes away.

布图设计专有权属于法人或者其他组织的，法人或者其他组织变更、终止后，其专有权在本条例规定的保护期内由承继其权利、义务的法人或者其他组织享有；没有承继其权利、义务的法人或者其他组织的，该布图设计进入公有领域。

Where the exclusive rights in a layout-design are owned by a legal entity or any other organisation, the exclusive rights are enjoyed by the legal entity or other organisation that inherits its rights and obligations within the duration of protection under the Regulations after the legal entity or other organisation reorganises or discontinues; where there is no legal entity or other organisation that inherits its rights and obligations, the layout-design falls into the public domain.
