INPI only conducts formality examination of utility model patent applications, and does not conduct search and substantive examination. However, in case of litigation, a search report needs to be submitted.
In view of the current situation, when a patent application is not examined by the Patent Office, the application will not be published, and the patent certificate will not be issued. Therefore, no annual fee payment deadline has been set.
