Patent Registration

Patent registration can be obtained in Egypt for an invention. A patent is a right granted to an individual or enterprise by the government that disallows others from making, using, selling, or importing the patented product or process without approval or consent.

Patent filing is the primary step an inventor initiates to protect his or her invention from being misused. Patent filing in Egypt is a tedious process, but it can be done quickly with proper guidance and support. An individual who wishes to secure a patent should get a consultation from expert patent practitioners.

Before a patent registration is obtained, a rigorous check is done on whether the product is innovative or novel and industrially applicable. An individual can search the intellectual property regulator of the database to check if there is an object or invention that is the same or similar to the applicant’s invention.

However, patent registrations are not applicable for all inventions, and the invention should satisfy specific criteria to obtain a patent.
