How Is a Patent Obtained?

Patent registration is a document that provides legal protection over an invention, granting intellectual property and industrial rights. It confirms that the invention is new, inventive, and industrially applicable. To check whether an invention is new, the first step is to request a patent application and preliminary search from us.

We then deliver a preliminary search report for the invention. For inventions found to be unique, we file with TÜRKPATENT (the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office). We follow the case through the year and deliver the examination report to you. If everything goes well, you qualify for a patent certificate. You then hold patent protection for your invention for 20 years, with full legal rights.
