How long is the interval between the two interviews of the Patent Examination Association?
The specific time arrangement between two interviews in Patent Examination Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) varies with the region, workload, job requirements and other factors. Generally speaking, the time interval between two PCT interviews should be at least 7 days, because considering the expert organization, the adjustment and preparation of the applicant and other factors, it is necessary to leave enough time. In fact, the specific interval between two interviews will also be affected by other factors, such as the review progress, special circumstances, the requirements of the parties and the negotiation situation. If you are an applicant or an agent, you can communicate and negotiate with the staff of the Patent Examination Cooperation Center to determine the specific time schedule between the two interviews according to the specific circumstances.
