      What Are the Procedures of filing PCT Patent Application in Vietnam?
Similar to the provisions of Vietnam Law on Intellectual Property rights, in order to be granted an invention protection title under the PCT, a registered invention must meet the following requirements: novelty, qualified innovative and capable of industrial application.
A dossier for patent registration under PCT of Vietnamese origin includes the following documents:
-The PCT application of Vietnamese origin to be made in English (03 copies);
-Description (02 copies, including drawings, if any);
-Claims for protection (02 copies);
-A copy of the payment receipt (in case of payment of fees and charges via postal service or directly into the account of the National Office of Intellectual Property);
-Relevant documents (if any).
Patent registration dossiers can be submitted in person or by post to the National Office of Intellectual Property in Hanoi or to two representative offices of the Department in Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang. After receiving the application, the applicant can conduct an international patent search at the competent search offices (national or regional patent office that meets the requirements set forth by the PCT and designated by the PCT General Assembly). PCT applications originating from Vietnam will be published in the PCT Gazette and subject to international preliminary examination. The appraisal department will prepare a preliminary appraisal report and send it to the International Bureau. At the national stage, the international application is examined for form and substantive according to the procedures prescribed for ordinary patent applications in the host country.
An important advantage of the PCT system is the provision of an additional minimum of 18 months from the expiration of the 12-month priority period, during which time the applicant can evaluate the possibility of commercializing product in different countries and decide which country to register the patent in. By filing an international application, the payment of national application fees and translation costs associated with national applications can be delayed.

Intellectual property protection abroad for Vietnamese enterprises
The development of international supply chains has become a critical success factor for big companies, and should be seen as important key for products of developing countries to gain entry into high standard market such as USA, European Countries, and Japan. However, many Vietnam companies have experienced problems in shifting their supply chain abroad as well as managed their intellectual property such as geographical indication, trademarks.
Tumblr media
    Protecting Intellectual Property Rights Abroad for Vietnam Enterprises
On October 24th, 2017, Vietnam Intellectual Property Association (VIPA) in cooperation with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), International Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property Rights (AIPPI) organized the seminar “Protecting intellectual property rights abroad for Vietnamese enterprises” to provide Vietnam companies value information for protecting their Intellectual Property right in the Fourth Industrial Revolution and global supply chain development.
All the experts have strongly recognized the important role of intellectual property protection abroad for Vietnamese enterprises and introduced:
-Introduction to the International World of Intellectual property
-Protecting a valuable asset- How to protect your Brand with Madrid
-Options to protect an invention: Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) and trade Secrets
-Introduction to the international design System- Hague
-Other WIPO services, Tools and Products
-About International Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property- AIPPI (Association Internationale pour la Protection de la Propriété Intellectuelle) Vietnam is a member of the WIPO and is a signatory to the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property. It has acceded to the Patent Cooperation Treaty and the Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks, and in 2004 joined the Berne Convention. Therefore, the Vietnamese enterprises should file trademarks, patents or industrial designs by international systems for saving cost and managing the registration procedures effectively. However, it is suggested that the international Bureau of WIPO does not decide whether trademarks, patents or industrial designs are eligible for protection or not, and the final decisions must depend on Intellectual Property law of each country i.e. Vietnam. For differences of laws in every country and difficult techniques when preparing Intellectual Property application, applicants should find valuable assistant from Intellectual Property agent.
If you are looking for experienced IP attorneys to help you with your IP application, you should visit ANT Lawyers - An IP services in Vietnam. Our attorneys have experience with the IP process and will work closely with you as you apply for your IP. We routinely match inventors with experienced IP attorneys for a free consultation on our platform and offer a money back guarantee.
