What's the difference between the patentee and the applicant? The subjects of patent application include patentee, patent applicant and patent inventor. The following small series specifically talks about the difference between the patentee and the applicant. The difference between patentee and applicant 1. What is the patentee? The patentee is the collective name of the owner and holder of the patent right. That is, when the patent application is approved, the patent applicant is granted the patent right. The patentee can be a unit or an individual. 2. What is the natural person, legal person or other organization that the patent applicant has the right to apply for a patent according to the law or the contract? In other words, the patentee is a natural person, legal person or other organization qualified to file a patent application for invention-creation. An applicant before a patent is granted is called a patent applicant. 3. What is the difference between the patentee and the applicant? 1. The patentee and the patentee are the same: the right to apply for a patent is the basis of a patent. After the patent application filed by the patentee is approved, the patentee becomes the patentee. 2. The patentee is strictly distinguished from the patentee: (1) The patent application right is an independent property right and a relative claim. The right of a specific subject to apply for a patent for an invention-creation cannot exclude others from filing a patent application for an invention-creation with the same theme.
