Comrade xi xx:
Hello:
The change of inventor and patentee requires the writing of a change of item, and there are agents, and the change should be handled by agents。
(1) changes should be made using the “register project change declaration” produced by the patent office, which is available for download from the website of the national intellectual property agency. Https://www. Cnipa. Gov. Cn/col/col192/index. HTML. The documents can be sent directly to our office for information and attention. They can also be mailed to the patent office of the national intellectual property office, located at 6th street, ximmen bridge, haidang district, beijing。
(2) the prescribed fees for recording changes to items are paid. The cost of writing a project change in the patent fee rates published by the patent office is the cost of each patent application to declare a project change. The write-off of project changes shall be paid within one month of the date of the request, unless otherwise provided; if the write-down is not paid or not paid, the write-down of project changes shall be deemed not to have been filed. The inventor's change cost $200。
(3) the original of the relevant supporting documentation is submitted simultaneously:
If the request for change is made by the inventor by default or error, the supporting documents signed or stamped by all applicants (or patent holders) and all inventors prior to the change should be submitted. An inventor's recognition should be based on facts, the right to invention cannot be transferred or given, and the altered inventor's creative contribution to the substantive characteristics of the invention should be documented. A copy of the identity card signed by all inventors is also required。
If the patentee makes a request for change as a result of the transfer of rights or the grant, it shall submit the assignment or the contract of gifts. The contract was entered into by the unit and should be stamped or specifically stamped. If a citizen concludes a contract, he/she signs or seals it. Where there are more than one patentee, a certificate of consent to transfer or gift should be submitted to all entitled persons。
If an invention or a transfer of a useful new patent involves a foreigner, a foreign enterprise or other foreign organization, the following provisions shall be met: if the transferring party is a person or unit in the mainland of china, the transferee is a foreigner, a foreign enterprise or other foreign organization, or the transferee is an individual, legal person or other organization in hong kong, macao or taiwan, a technology export permit or registration certificate for free export technology contracts issued by the department of state's commercial administration, or a registration certificate for free export technology contracts issued by the local commercial authority, as well as a signed or stamped contract for the transfer。
In the event of a transfer of patent rights, the changed patent holder entrusts the new patent agent to submit a power of attorney signed or stamped by all the changed patent applicants, and the changed patent holder entrusts the original patent agent with a power of attorney signed or stamped by the new patent holder. An agent shall be entrusted to an alien, a foreign enterprise or other foreign organization, or to an individual, legal person or other organization in hong kong, macao or taiwan。
If the transferee is a unit and has no delegated agent, the contact person shall be included in the written statement of the change of project. The contact person shall be a staff member of the unit, whose address shall be consistent with the address of the unit and shall not be consistent with that of the unit, and the unit shall also be required to provide a certificate that the contact person is an employee of the unit。
(4) in the case of simultaneous changes in multiple items of a patent application, only one declaration is required; in the case of a change in the same entry of a multiple patent application, the respective written item change declaration should be submitted even if the content of the change is identical。
(5) if your patent application is electronic, an electronic document is required。
