Patent Provisional Registration

A Provisional Patent application is a step along the path to obtaining a patent. It is effective because, by filing a provisional patent application, a person can market his invention without concern of losing his patent rights, thereby securing funds for further patent operations and development. The provisional or complete specification is one of the most crucial legal documents when submitting a patent registration application. A provisional specification can be lodged alongside a patent application to increase the likelihood of obtaining patent registration if the applicant believes the invention has reached a stage where it can be disclosed on paper but has not yet reached its final stage.

The average time required to register a provisional patent application is between 15 and 20 working days, depending on government processing time and the submission of client documents. Make an appointment with an Legal Door Advisor to receive a free consultation regarding provisional patent application filing.
