Le Moniteur, No. 95 of Thursday 11 December 1922, carrying the law on patents.
The issue also carries a law opening an extraordinary credit of three hundred thousand dollars to the Department of Public Works. The public accounts were kept in dollars in 1922, under the United States occupation.
Patents are the half of industrial property that the corpus had no instrument for. The World Intellectual Property Organization lists Haiti's industrial-property framework by reference to instruments of this period, and this is the domestic statute behind that listing. For an economist it matters as part of the investment climate: what a firm can protect, and for how long, is a term of entry.
