What does a patent agent do?

A patent agent refers to a person who has obtained the qualification to apply for a patent and handle other patent affairs on behalf of others. A patent agent should have certain practicing conditions. After examination and approval, China National Intellectual Property Administration will issue a patent agent qualification certificate, practice for one year, and put it on record through the patent agent management system.

The specific business of patent agents can be roughly divided into providing patent consultation, handling application procedures, maintaining patent validity, and representing litigation. Where the applicant entrusts a patent agency to apply for a patent to the Patent Office and handle other patent affairs, it shall also submit a power of attorney, indicating the authorization authority.
