Translation of "Non-provisional application" in German

A non-provisional patent application is offered for three types of patents:

This means that an applicant who files a PPA must file a corresponding non-provisional application for patent during the 12-month pendency period of the PPA in order to benefit from the earlier filing of the provisional application.

In the case no Non-Provisional Application is filed within twelve (12) months of the date of filing, the Provisional Application expires.

Applicants must file a non-provisional application claiming benefit of the earlier provisional application filing date in the USPTO before the provisional application pendency period expires in order to preserve any benefit from the provisional-application filing.

A provisional application must be entitled to a filing date and include the basic filing fee in order for a non-provisional application to claim benefit of that provisional application.

In order to obtain the benefit of the filing date of a provisional application the claimed subject matter in the later filed non-provisional application must have support in the provisional application.

It is also an alternative that allows an inventor some time to test or research the market for the invention for the purpose of deciding whether a Non-Provisional application should even be filed.

Unlike a Non-Provisional Application, this type of application requires neither the drafting of claims nor an oath or declaration.

The non-provisional application must have one inventor in common with the inventor(s) named in the provisional application to claim benefit of the provisional application filing date.

The benefits of the provisional application cannot be claimed if the one-year deadline for filing a non-provisional application has expired.

Currently the EPO adds a copy of the earlier application whose priority you claim to the file of the European patent application free of charge if the earlier application is either a European patent application, an international patent application filed with the EPO as receiving Office, a Japanese, Chinese or Korean patent or utility model application or a United States provisional or non-provisional patent application.

This can be very useful to private inventors who would like to test the market place for one year before making the commitment and expense to move forward with a non-provisional patent application.

In brief, the main components of a Non-Provisional patent application comprises of an abstract, a specification, at least one drawing illustrating the claimed invention, and at least one claim.

If you do not file a non-provisional application within that year, all your rights to your provisional application will be abandoned.

Within one year of filing a PPA, an applicant must file a Non-Provisional application in order to take advantage of the priority afforded to the Provisional application filing.

In certain cases you are exempted from having to submit a priority document: currently the EPO includes a copy of the earlier application whose priority you claim in the file of the European patent application free of charge if the earlier application is either a European patent application, an international patent application filed with the EPO as receiving Office, a Japanese, Chinese or Korean patent or utility model application or a United States provisional or non-provisional patent application.

Non-Provisional Applications: These applications require the following: a description, claims, a declaration or oath, drawings (as applicable), and the filing fee.
