Inventions with commercial potential are rarely confined to one country. Whether you are a startup planning to expand into global markets, an exporter in need of territorial protection, or a multinational managing a worldwide patent portfolio, SCIPP Patents provides comprehensive international patent services.
The PCT system, administered by WIPO, allows you to file a single international application that preserves your right to seek patent protection in over 150 member countries. A PCT application does not itself result in an international patent — patents remain national rights — but it provides an international filing date, an International Search Report (ISR), and a Written Opinion on patentability, and delays national phase entry for up to 30 months from priority.
KEY ADVANTAGES OF PCT
Under the Paris Convention, if you have filed a patent application in India, you may file corresponding applications in any other Paris Convention member country within 12 months, claiming priority from the Indian filing date. This is the direct route when fewer countries are targeted, or when time is short.
The FER typically raises objections on novelty, inventive step, industrial applicability, and formal matters. Our responses are technically detailed, legally precise, and strategically argued. We do not simply accept the examiner's conclusions — we build persuasive, well-supported arguments backed by claim amendments where necessary.

International Patent Strategy Considerations
The decision of where to file internationally should be driven by your commercial strategy, not just by where you operate today. We advise on questions such as: Where are your key markets? Where do your competitors operate? Where are your manufacturing operations? What is your licensing strategy? Based on these factors, we develop a targeted international patent filing plan that maximises protection while managing costs.
