Patent Registration Explained

A patent registration is a document that grants legal protection to the owner of an invention and confers intellectual property and industrial rights. It confirms the invention is new, innovative, and applicable to industry.

It grants the owner exclusive rights over the invention for a specific period. It is valid both abroad and in Turkey. It provides monopoly usage rights to owners of inventions that solve an existing technical problem or present a method. These monopoly rights are proven by the patent certificate.

With patent registration, protection lasts for 20 years from the date of application.
