When the WTO Agreements took effect on 1 January 1995, developed countries were given one year to ensure that their national IP laws and practices were in conformity with the requirements of the TRIPS Agreement. Developing countries and (under certain conditions) transition economies were given five years (to 1 January 2000) and least-developed countries 11 years (to 1 January 2006), later extended by a further 10 years for certain products (to 1 January 2016).
