Patent Duration
For applications filed on or after June 8, 1995, utility and plant patents

ends 20 years from the date you first applied for the patent subject to the
payment of appropriate maintenance fees.
Design patents last 14 years from the date you are granted the patent. Patents
in force on June 8 and patents issued thereafter on applications filed prior
to June 8, 1995 automatically have a term that is the greater of the twenty
year term discussed above or seventeen years from the patent grant.
