Is there any other way to accelerate the examination of an application? (2023/1/3)
An applicant can apply for the Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) Program between TIPO and the USPTO under certain circumstances. In addition, Article 40 of Taiwan Patent Act stipulates the regulation of prioritized examination as “Where, after the laying-open of an invention patent application, a person other than the applicant has exploited the invention commercially, the Specific Patent Agency may, upon request, conduct prioritized examination.”
