Under the premise of not giving priority to examination, it usually takes about half a year to apply for an appearance patent in Shanghai. If you want to get the review conclusion as soon as possible, you can request priority review. A design patent that meets one of the following conditions may be given priority for examination:
(a) involving energy conservation and environmental protection, a new generation of information technology, biology, high-end equipment manufacturing, new energy, new materials, new energy vehicles, intelligent manufacturing and other national key development industries;
(two) industries encouraged by the people's governments at the provincial and municipal levels;
(three) involving the Internet, big data, cloud computing and other fields and the technology or product update speed is fast;
(4) The applicant for a patent or the person requesting reexamination has made preparations for the implementation or has started the implementation, or there is evidence to prove that others are implementing their invention-creation;
(5) The first application for a patent on the same subject in China and the first application in other countries or regions;
(six) other matters of great significance to the national interests or public interests that need to be reviewed first. If China National Intellectual Property Administration agrees to give priority to the examination, the patent for design shall be closed within two months from the date of consent. ......
At the same time, in the application for patent for appearance, we need to go through a basic link such as application-acceptance-preliminary examination-publicity-authorization after submitting the application for patent for appearance, and in this whole process, we can shorten the time required for the application link through the patent application agency.
The above is the question that Intellectual Property introduced to you about how quickly Shanghai can apply for an appearance patent. It can be said that there is generally no clear time limit for applying for a patent for appearance. In addition to the uncontrollable time limit after application, we can generally shorten the specific time for applying for an appearance patent through professional skills and means.
