5、延伸国(2个,可选择性指定,一国一笔指定费)

   

6、生效国(4个,可选择性指定,一国一笔指定费)

       

7、提交申请

   

8、实审请求

提实审期限:国际检索报告公开日的6个月;

或早优先权日起的31个月

   

9、加快程序

①Early processing: EPO在31个月届满后才开始处理申请,如若申请人希望EPO提前处理,可提出early processing请求以达到加快目的。

②Waivers: 申请人也可以通过放弃主动修改的方式,来达到加快目的

   

10、主动修改

提交之后,官方会发出是否主动修改的通知,申请人可自个月内提交主动修改。

   

(二)公布阶段

1、公开通知

如无形式缺陷问题,或通过应答方式克服了官方所指出的缺陷问题,EPO会发出公开号日和公开号的通知,告知本申请将在何时公布。

   

2、临时保护,香港注册

欧洲申请公开后,可自公开日起的6个月进行香港一次注册。

   

(三)检索阶段

1、部分检索报告

出现单一性问题时,官方会发出“部分检索报告”。

部分检索报告会随附审查员针对已检索的[敏感词]组权项出具的临时意见,该临时意见仅供申请人参考,申请人无需就该临时意见进行书面答复。

申请人希望审查员对其他权项组进行检索时,需在2个月内支付相应的检索费用,请审查员对已支付检索费的权项组进行检索。

随后申请人会收到扩展欧洲检索报告。

2、拓展欧洲检索报告

补充欧洲检索报告

Supplementary European search report

欧洲检索意见

European search Report

EESR =补充欧洲检索报告+欧洲检索意见

在国际检索报告基础上,EPO会进行补充检索,出具补充欧洲检索报告,并随附欧洲检索意见。

答复期限:检索报告发文后大约1个月,发是否继续申请通知,从该通知发文日起6个月

3、补充欧洲检索报告和欧洲检索意见

       

4、是否继续申请?
