Get Editable PCT Forms Ro127. January 2004 - Wipo

The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) makes it possible to seek patent protection for an invention simultaneously in each of a large number of countries by filing an "international" patent application. Such an application may be filed by anyone who is a national or resident of a PCT Contracting State.

Generally, if the change of the applicant has been recorded in the International Bureau and a "Notification of the Recording of a Change " (form PCT/IB/306) has been issued, the bibliographic data after the change should be used when the international application enters the Chinese national phase.

The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) is an international patent law treaty, concluded in 1970. It provides a unified procedure for filing patent applications to protect inventions in each of its contracting states. A patent application filed under the PCT is called an international application, or PCT application.

WIPO is dedicated to developing a balanced and accessible international intellectual property (IP) system, which rewards creativity, stimulates innovation and contributes to economic development while safeguarding the public interest.

A PCT application is NOT an international patent. It does not result in the grant of a patent. In fact, there is no such thing as an “international patent.” A PCT application is essentially a placeholder, much like a U.S. provisional patent application.
