| description | This paper puts forward a sustainable fee structure for the EU Patent (COMPAT). The proposal includes pre-grant and post-grant fees and illustrates the differences between Euro-direct applications and PCT applications. The break-even analysis shows that the COMPAT would make the European patent system more attractive with significantly lower relative costs. At the same time, the new schedule provides a financially sustainable model for the system by preserving relatively high absolute fees and allowing for a fee reduction for small innovative firms and public research organizations.
► Overall: proposal for a sustainable patent fee structure, for Euro-direct and Euro-PCT applications. ► The proposal is consistent with what industries are prepared to pay. ► The proposal is associated with a sharp drop in relative costs, as compared to other large patent offices. |
