  2. The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) is an international treaty with the objective of simplifying the process of seeking Patent Registration for an invention in multiple countries for any applicant belonging to the member countries of PCT. The entities interested in covering multiple jurisdictions (countries) can file a PCT application without going into the nitty gritty of Patent Rules, procedures and filing requirements prevailing in each of the member countries WHAT IS PATENT COOPERATION TREATY (PCT) FILING

  3. FILING OF PCT APPLICATION

  4. Anyone who is a national or resident of a Member Country can file a PCT application and it can either be made in the member state (receiving office) or directly with the International Bureau (IB) in the WIPO. The said application has to be made within 12 months from the priority date and in a case where the application does not contain any priority claim, the international filing date will be considered to be the priority date.

  5. NATIONAL PHASE ENTRY Filing of PCT application provides additional 18-month time to enter in national phase with the desired member countries. Therefore, if an entity (natural person or legal entity or combination thereof) is filing initial or first Patent application or priority application in the Patent office of a member country, then the said entity has to enter in national phase within 30/31 month (as the case may be).
