`
`PROTECTING YOUR INVENTION OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
`
`Since the rights granted by a U.S. patent extend only throughout the territory of the United States and have no
`effect in a foreign country, an inventor who wishes patent protection in another country must apply for a patent
`in a specific country or in regional patent offices. Applicants may wish to consider thefiling of an international
`application under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT). An international (PCT) application generally has the same
`effect as a regular national patent application in each PCT-member country. The PCT process simplifies thefiling
`of patent applications on the same invention in member countries, but does notresult in a grant of "an international
`patent" and doesnot eliminate the need of applicantsto file additional documents and fees in countries where patent
`protection is desired.
`
`Almost every country has its own patent law, and a person desiring a patent in a particular country must make an
`application for patent in that country in accordancewith its particular laws. Since the laws of many countries differ
`in various respects from the patent law of the United States, applicants are advised to seek guidance from specific
`foreign countries to ensure that patent rights are not lost prematurely.
`
`Applicants also are advised that in the case of inventions made in the United States, the Director of the USPTO must
`issue a license before applicants can apply for a patent in a foreign country. Thefiling of a U.S. patent application
`serves as a request for a foreign filing license. The application's filing receipt contains further information and
`guidanceasto the status of applicant's license for foreign filing.
`
`Applicants may wish to consult the USPTO booklet, "General Information Concerning Patents” (specifically, the
`section entitled "Treaties and Foreign Patents") for more information on timeframes and deadlinesfor filing foreign
`patent applications. The guide is available either by contacting the USPTO Contact Center at 800-786-9199, or it
`can be viewed on the USPTO website at http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/pac/doc/general/index.html.
`
`For information on preventing theft of your intellectual property (patents, trademarks and copyrights), you may wish
`to consult the U.S. Government website, http:/Avww.stopfakes.gov. Part of a Department of Commerceinitiative,
`this website includes self-help "toolkits" giving innovators guidance on howto protectintellectual property in specific
`countries such as China, Korea and Mexico. For questions regarding patent enforcement issues, applicants may
`call the U.S. Governmenthotline at 1-866-999-HALT (1-866-999-4258).

`WARNING:
`
`Petitioner/applicant is cautioned to avoid submitting personal information in documentsfiled in a patent application that may
`contribute to identity theft. Personal information such as social security numbers, bank account numbers, or credit card
`numbers (other than a checkor credit card authorization form PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposes) is never required
`by the USPTOto support a petition or an application. If this type of personal information is included in documents submitted
`to the USPTO, petitioners/applicants should consider redacting such personal information from the documents before
`submitting them to the USPTO. Petitioner/applicant is advised that the record of a patent application is available to the public
`after publication of the application (unless a non-publication request in compliance with 37 CFR 1.213(a) is madein the
`application) or issuance of a patent. Furthermore, the record from an abandoned application mayalso be available to the
`public if the application is referenced in a published application or an issued patent (see 37 CFR 1.14). Checks and credit
`card authorization forms PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposes are not retained in the application file and therefore are
`not publicly available.
