The difference between patent right transfer and patent application right transfer and specification change

Patent transfer refers to the act of transferring rights to others after the patent application is approved. At this point, the patent has been protected by law. Both the transfer of patent right and the transfer of patent application right shall take effect after being registered by the patent administrative department of the State Council. Description change refers to the behavior that needs to be corrected after the description item (i.e. description item) includes: application number, application date, name of invention-creation, classification number, priority item, matters of applicant or patentee, name of inventor, matters of patent agency, contact person and representative, etc. The difference between the two is that the specification change belongs to the change of patent information, including the transfer of patent application right and patent right, which can only be changed if the application is submitted and meets the requirements; The right to apply for a patent and the transfer of a patent need to be signed by both parties and registered by the relevant departments before they have legal effect.
