Consulting a comprehensive patent registration strategy for Patent applicants

SB has a complete consulting process established over 15 years for domestic and international clients, individuals and institutions. We can help patent applicants with the following tasks:

+ Evaluate the possibility of bringing the product to market

Before a product is put on the Vietnam market, it is necessary to ensure that it does not infringe a patent or design previously granted to another party. SB’s team of lawyers will make appropriate strategies for each type of product so that they can come to the most accurate conclusions about risks and safety when bringing products to the Vietnam market.

+ Conduct the prior search of patent registration before submitting an official patent application in Vietnam at the National Office of Intellectual Property

In order for an invention to be patented in Vietnam, the invention must meet the following criteria:

  1. Novelty
  2. Inventive step
  3. Applicable requirement

The scope of assessment of novelty and inventive step is not only limited to the territory of Vietnam but also to the whole world. Therefore, it is a challenge for any inventor or patent owner to know whether an invention is likely to be granted and if the above criteria are met or not.
