PCT nationalizationsPATENT PROTECTION WITH CONFIDENCE
With the increasing trend of globalization it is essential to protect your company’s advances in research. The PCT enables
you to obtain patents in multiple jurisdictions through a streamlined process. Meet your organization’s requirements
by choosing from two main strategies for PCT nationalizations.
What is the PCT?
In a nutshell, the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) is a
standard for simultaneously obtaining patent protection in
a large number of countries.
Although a PCT application does not mean your
invention is protected globally, it acts as a basis for future
applications in PCT member states, called PCT national
/ regional phases. They consist of fulfilling the local
requirements in each jurisdiction you wish to obtain
protection.
The National Phase Entry Gateway
Our National Phase Entry Gateway creates detailed
cost estimates for the jurisdictions you specify and lets
you place orders based on those estimates. The quotes
include detailed fee breakdowns for every country you
select along with estimated translation and service fees.
After nationalization you will be in direct contact with
the local associates for prosecuting the individual
applications.
The Gateway provides two types of official fee estimates:
• Minimal (official fees based on minimum legal
requirements)
• PCT as published (official fees based on the
published PCT application)
Based on the WIPO database, the Gateway determines the
total number of (independent and multiple-dependent)
claims, in order to maximize accuracy.
We analyze applications for word and claims count in any
allowed language, with Arabic support in development.
