Sometimes an invention can be considered non- inventive by combining the technical information provided by a number of documents. Such documents are identified in the left hand column as category 'Y'.

There are, as of October 2022, 39 Contracting States to the EPC, also called member states of the European Patent Organisation: Albania, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, ...

A European patent gives its owner the same rights as a national patent in each country for which it is granted. You can choose to apply for protection in any or all of the member countries of the EPC.

Validation is the process of registering your granted European patent at the national patent offices of the Contracting States where you would like to own an enforceable right. You can choose any number of countries that are part of the European Patent Organisation.

Once they have been granted, European patents revert to the national patent offices of the designated states. You should therefore contact the relevant office for any post-grant legal status information you require. Legal status information can also be accessed via the "Legal events" tab in Espacenet.

How long does a granted patent stay valid? The maximum term of a European patent is 20 years from its filing date. The patent may lapse earlier if the annual renewal fees are not paid or if the patent is revoked by the patentee or after opposition proceedings.

"The EPO's authority ... ends upon the grant. ...an EP patent is not itself a patent, but a right under the EPC treaty to have a patent instantiated in a national office. Thus, EP patents are often referred to as a bundle of independent, nationally-enforceable, nationally-revocable patents."

The European Patent Convention is an international (not European) treaty; therefore BREXIT will have no impact on the grant European patents (EPs) and the validation of EPs in the UK.

A European patent is the product of a unified grant procedure before the EPO under procedures established by the European Patent Convention (EPC). Before grant, a European patent application is a unitary legal entity. However, after grant, a "European patent" essentially ceases to have unitary character.

What is a European patent? A European patent is, in essence, a single patent application that simultaneously covers many European states during the examination process. After grant of the patent, it splits up into separate national patents in the states you choose.
