The Weifang intellectual property bureau has gone online with the province's first comprehensive IP service website.

It provides services including online consultation and free audio and video communication. Visitors can also send emails or leave messages to acquire information, report cases and lodge complaints.

It also provides copies of laws and regulations, case analyses and telephone numbers for government offices.

Before the website was established, local residents could only make a telephone call to solve IP problems.
