Ownership changes, company mergers, company address changes, and other changes involving applicants, inventors, etc., will have a direct or indirect impact on the company and its assets during the patent application process. It is relatively complicated and error-prone. In reality, many patent applicants/patentees do not understand how to handle changes, and are not clear about the requirements for documents and fees required for changes, resulting in unnecessary corrections and delays in patent applications ( patent) process, even resulting in the loss of rights.
