What are the specific examination criteria for an application for a patent for appearance?

China ranks first in the world in terms of quantity and authorization, but the quality level of design patents is low, and there are many inferior designs in design patents. In the design patents applied for authorization, the packaging and labels of general products account for a considerable number. In many countries, such labels and packages cannot be protected as designs, and only packages that constitute independent products can be protected as product designs. The current patent law only has novelty standards for granting design patents, and there is no creative requirement. This is an obviously low authorization standard, which directly leads to the low quality level of design patents in China, which is not only not conducive to encouraging and protecting innovative designs, but also has a negative impact on market competition.
