Application Guide

The design patent examination system does not adopt the substantive examination system of prior disclosure and application of inventions, nor does it adopt a new form of examination system. Instead, it adopts the substantive examination system based on authority, which designates patent examiners to conduct substantive examination of design patent applications after the documents are complete. After paying the authorization fee and annual fee within 3 months after receiving the authorization notice, the patent will be announced for authorization.
