FAQs
Q1. Term required for filing a patent application in Portugal?
The term for filing a patent application in Portugal claiming priority is 12 months from the priority date. Restoration of this term is possible within two months after the expiry of the 12-month period, provided that evidential proof of due care is submitted.
Q2. What is the Duration of Patents of Portugal?
Patents in Portugal are valid for 20 years from the filing date. The grant fee needs to be paid for a Portuguese patent, the amount of the grant fee depends on the type of the certificate – paper or electronic. Annual fees become due starting from the third year from the filing or priority date.
Q3. What are the Filing requirements in Portugal?
The official language of proceedings before the Portuguese Industrial Property Office (INPI) is Portuguese. However, the application may initially be filed in English. A Portuguese translation thereof must be submitted within one month of the corresponding notification from the Office, provided that an additional fee is paid.   To obtain the filing date, an application should contain at least:
  • the applicant's name or company name, address and nationality of the applicant(s) and inventor(s);
  • indication of the number, date and country of priority (if any);
  • application text (title, description, claims, abstract and drawings) in Portuguese or English.
  Usually, the Portuguese Industrial Property Office (INPI) does not require the filing of the Priority Document. However, under special circumstances, the Office may request a certified copy of the priority document and its translation into Portuguese to be submitted.   The Power of Attorney is not required if the application is filed through a registered Portuguese patent attorney.   Where the applicant is not the inventor, it is sufficient to designate the name and address of the inventor and to state how the applicant acquired the right to the patent. No Assignment Deed is required.
Q4. How to examine a Portugal patent application?
Patent applications in Portugal are subject to formal and substantive examination. Substantive examination is initiated automatically. No special request needs to be made.
