The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) offers a streamlined process for securing international patent protection, enabling inventors and businesses to file a single application that can cover multiple countries. We facilitate this process, guiding clients through the complexities of international patent applications to ensure their inventions receive the broadest possible protection.

PCT Filing:

PCT Filing is the procedure of submitting a patent application under the PCT, which allows applicants to seek patent protection in multiple jurisdictions with a single filing. This approach not only simplifies the initial application process but also provides additional time to assess the commercial viability of an invention before committing to individual national filings.

Key Objectives of PCT Filing:

• Simplified International Applications: Submit a single application that is recognized by multiple countries, streamlining the filing process and reducing administrative burdens.
• Extended Time for Decision-Making: Gain up to 30 or 31 months from the priority date to decide on national phase entries, providing valuable time for market research and investment.
• Thorough International Search: Benefit from a comprehensive prior art search conducted by the International Searching Authority (ISA), which provides insights into potential patentability.
