Did you get a valid patent right after you got the patent certificate?

Did you get a valid patent right after you got the patent certificate? In fact, this is not the case, which is a common misunderstanding of most patentees. So what is the reason? Did you get a valid patent right after you got the patent certificate? Did you get a valid patent right after you got the patent certificate? In China, China National Intellectual Property Administration does not conduct substantive examination of utility model and design patents. Even if someone has applied for the same patent for the same technical scheme before you apply, your application may still be approved. If no one raises an objection, your patent right will remain. Once someone declares your patent invalid, your patent will be 100% invalid. In other words, you have not obtained a valid patent right. As far as the invention patent is concerned, although China National Intellectual Property Administration has conducted a substantive examination on it, no one can guarantee that the invention patent examination department has searched all the relevant documents and materials in the world. Therefore, obtaining a patent certificate does not mean that your patent is really valid, but only represents China National Intellectual Property Administration's approval of the patent application. Your patent is truly valid only if no one declares your patent invalid or someone declares it invalid within the validity period of your patent, but the re-examination board maintains your patent after review. Does the application number mean that the patent has been approved? In fact, the application number and the authorization number are two different numbering methods, which only shows that this technology is in the process of applying for a patent, not being authorized. The existence of the application number only shows that the patent office has accepted your patent application, but it does not mean that it has been authorized. Subsequent applications may be rejected because the applicant fails to pay in time, make corrections, reply and the technical scheme itself is flawed; Having the patent number means that the patent has been authorized and the patentee has the patent right. (1) The current patent application number in China consists of 12 digits, 1 dot (. ) and 1 parity bits, arranged by year, 2003 10 102344.5. The first four digits indicate the year of application, the fifth digit indicates the type of patent application for protection: 1- invention, 2- utility model, 3- design, 8-PCT China international application for invention patent and 9-PCT China international application for utility model patent, and the sixth to twelfth digits (***7 digits) indicate the application of that year. (2) After the patent application is authorized, add ZL before the patent application number. For example, ZL2003 10 102344.5 has an application number, which only shows that the China National Intellectual Property Administration Patent Office has accepted the patent application and will review it. But whether it can pass or not depends on the audit results. If the application is approved, the letter ZL will be added before the application number to become the patent number, and the authorized text of the application can be found on the website of China National Intellectual Property Administration. Did you get a valid patent right after you got the patent certificate? After receiving the patent certificate and paying relevant fees, China National Intellectual Property Administration announced the patent and you obtained the patent right. Generally, after paying the authorization fee and annual fee and getting the certificate, you begin to enjoy the patent right.
