Requirements for Filing Patent Applications
We require the following information and documents for attending to patent application:
1. A certified true copy of client’s Patent and translation (if any).
2. A Power of Attorney to be executed by client.
Please be advised that there is no independent system of registering patents in Brunei.
Brunei will register patents after they have been registered in United Kingdom/Europe or Malaysia or Singapore.
The filing in Brunei has to be done within 3 years after the patent has been granted in one of the 3 abovementioned home countries. After the patent is registered in Brunei, the patent owner will have the same rights accorded to the owner in the home country grant.
In order to re-register a grant of patent in Brunei, we need the following documents:
1. Authorization by owner of the patent in favor of ourselves, as agent (authorization form).
2. Certified copies of the grant and specifications including the drawings.
