Additionally, by integrating the vision and mission of the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office (TÜRKPATENT) into the content, we will help you better understand the process.
A patent is a document that grants the owner of an invention the right to commercial use for a certain period. This document prevents the unauthorized use of the invention by others and ensures the protection of innovative ideas. Obtaining a patent is a strategic step for companies looking to stand out in competitive markets.
In line with the National Technology Initiative, the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office carries out studies to protect and commercialize industrial property rights. The institution's vision is to contribute to Turkey's innovation ecosystem and play an effective role at the international level.
Before applying for a patent, you need to determine whether your invention is patentable. For an invention to be patentable, it must meet the following criteria:
If you believe your invention meets these criteria, you can start the patent application process.
Before applying for a patent, it is important to research whether similar inventions exist. You can conduct preliminary research through TÜRKPATENT's database or international sources (such as WIPO). This step reduces the risk of your application being rejected.
The documents required for a patent application are: - Technical description of the invention, - Patent request form, - Abstract and description, - Claims (the parts of the invention you want to protect), - Drawings (if any).
You can submit your application to TÜRKPATENT online or in person. During the application, it is recommended to contact the institution for up-to-date information on patent fees.
After your application is received, TÜRKPATENT conducts a formal examination. Then, your invention is published in the official bulletin, and third parties gain the right to object. If there are no objections, the technical examination process begins.
If your invention is deemed patentable after the technical examination, a patent registration certificate is issued. This document indicates that your invention is protected.
