FILING FOR PATENTS
Patents are granted for inventions that satisfy the requirements of novelty, inventive step and industrial application.
Applications can be made, in Portuguese, by the inventor, his legal successor, juristic person or assignees.
Under the International Convention, applications claiming priority must be filed within 12 months of the earliest filing in a
Convention country. Priority must be claimed on filing. An application filed under PCT designating Brazil has the same effect as
a national application. International applications must be filed in Brazil within 30 months of the international filing or priority date.
Publication of the application will take place after 18 months counting from the earliest priority date. However, if the application
has not been filed with a claim to priority, publication will take place 18 months from the date of filing in Brazil.
Examination of the application will not begin earlier than 60 days after the publication of the application and must be requested
by the applicant within 36 months from the filing date.
