How to File International Patent Applications

If you're wondering how to file an international patent, you should first think about the location you want to protect. It's possible to do so through the Paris convention, which is a treaty that was signed in 1883. The PCT is an international agreement between countries. By choosing to file an application for a PCT, you will receive a patent that is equivalent to your invention. This is not the case with an application for an EU or US-based product.<br>

  2. International Patent Applications The first step in filing a patent application abroad is to choose which country will accept your application. Depending on the country, you may decide to submit your application to a single country, or you may choose to submit it to several. You should consider the timeframe. Most countries will accept a PCT application. However, you should make sure that you choose a country that will grant you the right to file your application in their country. The PCT route requires a few more steps. First, you must select which countries you wish to submit your application in. Once you have chosen the country that you want to file your application in, you must wait at least three months. You can also request a review of your application, but this will cost you more money. You may also choose to file your application through the EPO. If you choose this option, you will have to pay more than two million rupees to obtain protection in every country.

  3. How to File International Patent Applications? If you want to file a PCT application, you should first make sure you are a resident or national of a PCT Contracting State. The PCT language is a special language that is used to file international patent applications. In order to apply for an EPO patent, you must have an address in a country that recognizes the PCT. This will help the EPO review your application and will protect your IP. Another way to save money and time is to file directly in the countries you wish to patent. This will save you both time and money by not going through the international phase. The initial filing fee for an international application is higher than the fees for filing a patent application in each country, but it's not chump change. By avoiding the international stage, you can cut back on fees and time. So, if you know where you want to file, go ahead and make the necessary arrangements.
