FAQ

Novelty: One of the essential requirements for filing a patent in another country is that the invention must be novel, meaning it must be new and not previously disclosed. This requirement is necessary to prevent someone from filing a patent for something that already exists.

While a provisional patent application does not offer direct international protection, there are mechanisms available to simplify and streamline the process of seeking patent protection in multiple countries. One such mechanism is the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT).

Submit the application to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) or a national patent office. Your invention is then provisionally protected in all contracting states of the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT). The WIPO carries out a search on the state of the art (also known as the prior art).

A U.S. patent holder can block importation and sale of an infringing machine, manufacture or composition of matter in the U.S. and can sue for damages. Suit can be brought against foreign companies in U.S. federal court, so long as the patent holder can serve the infringer.

You may apply for a U.S. patent whether you're a U.S. citizen or not. No U.S. patent can be issued if, before you apply in the United States, the invention was patented abroad by you or your legal representative and if the foreign application was filed more than 12 months before the U.S. filing.

Since the rights granted by a U.S. patent extend only throughout the territory of the United States and have no effect in a foreign country, an inventor who wishes patent protection in other countries must apply for a patent in each of the other countries or in regional patent offices.

The granting of patents remains under the control of the national or regional patent offices in what is called the “national phase”.

If an earlier applicant obtains a patent first in their own country, can others subsequently patent the same invention in a different country? The simple answer “should” be no.
