What does the invention patent certificate record?
A patent certificate is a patent certificate issued to a patent applicant by the patent administrative department of the State Council (i.e. China National Intellectual Property Administration) if the patent application has passed the examination and no reason for rejection has been found, and it meets the conditions for granting a patent right. This is a legal document. How long does it take from application to obtaining a patent certificate? After receiving an application for a patent for invention, the administrative department for patent in the State Council, after preliminary examination, finds that it conforms to the provisions of this Law, and shall publish it immediately after 18 months from the date of application. The patent administration department of the State Council may publish its application at an early date upon the request of the applicant. Within three years from the date of filing, the patent administration department of the State Council may conduct substantive examination according to the request made by the applicant at any time; If the applicant fails to request substantive examination within the time limit without justifiable reasons, the application shall be deemed to have been withdrawn. The patent administrative department of the State Council may, when it deems it necessary, examine the application for a patent for invention on its own. If the application for a patent for invention is rejected after preliminary examination and substantive examination, the Patent Office shall make an authorization decision, issue a patent certificate, register and announce it. It takes about 3-5 years for an invention patent to be applied for and authorized. The first page of the invention patent certificate records the following contents: 1, name of invention; 2.
