Step 2: The patent assignor and the assignee sign a patent assignment contract. After the patent transferor and the transferee reach an agreement, the subsequent transfer work can be carried out effectively. In the transfer contract, there should be clear words about the interests of both parties.
Step 3: Both parties should prepare the relevant documents required for patent transfer, and these documents should be filled out in strict accordance with the prescribed forms, so as to shorten the time for China National Intellectual Property Administration to review documents and speed up the review.
Step 4: Submit relevant documents to the Patent Office, because the patent transfer will have legal basis only after it is examined and approved by the Patent Office.
Step 5: The last step of the patent transaction process is to wait for the result of patent transfer. The patent office will inform the examination result when it examines it. If it passes the examination, the Patent Office will generally issue a notice of conformity within 1 month, and the relevant change results can be inquired in China National Intellectual Property Administration Patent Library.
