Is the National Defense Patent Office (responsible for receiving and examining national defense patent applications) a part of China National Intellectual Property Administration?
Answer the questions above.
First of all, China National Intellectual Property Administration is the patent administration department of the State Council mentioned in the Patent Law, which is directly subordinate to the State Council.
Second, there are two units responsible for national defense patents:
The national defense patent applied by the local authorities shall be the responsibility of the former the State Council Bureau of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, that is, the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense. In 2008, this department was abolished and its functions were mainly transferred to the National Defense Science, Technology and Industry Bureau of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
The patent of military system is in the charge of the former General Armament Department of China People's Liberation Army (hereinafter referred to as the General Armament Department). On 20 12, the national defense intellectual property office of the PLA General Armament Department was formally established for management.
The above information is mainly based on the National Defense Patent Regulations (2004) and the functional evolution of various departments.
Please correct me if you have any questions.
