Translation of documents of parties to proceedings
Article 5
1. If a party to proceedings files a document in a language other than an official language of the European Union, the Office may require a translation of the documents received to be made by the party to the proceedings into the language to be used by that party or by the competent members of the staff of the Office. 2. Where a translation of a document is to be filed or is filed by a party to proceedings, the Office may require the filing, within such time as it may specify, of a certificate that the translation corresponds to the original text. 3. Failure to file the translation referred to in paragraph 1 and the certificate referred to in paragraph 2 shall lead to the document being deemed not to have been received.
