1. How long does it usually take for patent licensing filing to have results? Patent licensing filing is usually about one month after the application is submitted. The Trademark Office will issue a "Notice of Acceptance of Trademark Licensing Contract Filing Acceptance". In about three months, the trademark licensing contract filing was completed, and the Trademark Office issued the Trademark Licensing Contract Filing Letter. A patent license contract entered into between a patentee and another person shall be filed with the Patent Office within 3 months from the date of entry into force of the contract. The registration of trademark license contract means that the trademark registrant can authorize others to use its registered trademark by signing a trademark license contract. The licensor shall supervise the quality of the goods used by the licensee using its registered trademark. The licensee shall ensure the quality of the goods using the registered trademark. If the registered trademark of another person is used with permission, the name of the licensee and the place of origin of the goods must be marked on the goods using the registered trademark. When licensing others to use its registered trademark, the licensor shall submit a copy of the contract to the Trademark Office for record within 3 months from the date of signing the trademark license contract. You can entrust a trademark agency to handle the filing of a trademark license contract, or the licensor can apply directly to the trademark. 2. What materials are required for patent license filing? To handle patent contract filing, the following documents must be submitted in duplicate: (1) Filing application form; (2) Copy of contract; (3) Copy of patent certificate or patent application acceptance notice; (4) Proof of identity of the transferor; (5) Other documents. 3.

Other matters needing attention in the filing of patent licenses: The transferee of a registered patent license contract has evidence to prove that others are committing or about to commit acts that infringe upon his patent rights. If not stopped in time, his legitimate rights and interests will be irreparable. If there is any damage, an application may be made to the People's Court to order the respondent to stop infringement of patent rights before litigation. The assignee of an exclusive patent license contract may apply to the People's Court separately in accordance with the law; the assignee of an exclusive patent license contract may file an application if the patentee does not apply. The assignee of a registered patent contract may also request the local filing management department to handle ongoing or past patent infringements in accordance with Article 57 of the Patent Law. Patent licensing is a guarantee for the owner of patented technology to earn corresponding fees by implementing the patent he owns in a certain period, in a certain region, and in a certain way. Registering your own patents can protect your rights and interests and prevent your patents from being used and stolen by others. You can handle the filing of a patent license yourself, or you can entrust a third-party company agent with full authorization to handle it.
