Urgency of Authentic Deeds in Transfer of Intellectual Property Rights Based On Agreements

Intellectual property can be transferred or assigned either in whole or in part due to inheritance; grant; will; endowment; and agreement. Some also mention that the transfer of intellectual property comes in two forms, based on laws and agreements. The transfer of intellectual property based on the Law is done through inheritance, grant, and will. Furthermore, transfer through agreements is done through licensing. In terms of form, agreements are made for the transfer of intellectual property through inheritance based on legal provisions, meaning without the need for a deed in advance, where intellectual property is transferred to heirs due to legal provisions. However, intellectual property can also be transferred in writing with a deed because the party transferring it is still alive, through grant and will. Meanwhile, intellectual property transferred based on an agreement is the right of the holder of intellectual property to transfer their rights to another party in the form of written permission (license). The transfer of rights in Intellectual Property made in writing may involve the services of another party, namely a notary who is a public official to create a deed. The research method used in examining the urgency of the authority of a notary is by using normative juridical theory by tracing and analyzing literature and documents related to the research substance. The results obtained as knowledge are the concept of a notary's role and responsibility in the making of a licensing agreement.
