Frequently Asked Questions

What is a patent?

A patent is an exclusive right granted for an invention, which is a product, a machine/device, a method, or a process that provides a new way of doing something, or offers a new technical solution to a problem.

Why do I need a patent registration?

A patent is a commercial tool and a valuable asset due to the rights it gives the patent owner to monopolize the patented invention for a certain duration. Hence, if your invention has market potential, you may need patent protection to prevent third parties from using your invention without your authorization. Apart from this preventive action, a patent also attracts business opportunities and potential
investors.

When should I apply for a patent?

You should apply for a patent when the technology or product you are developing is unique and involves an inventive step that solves a technical problem. A patent should be applied for an early stage before disclosing the invention to the public as Malaysia adheres to the “First to File” rule which means that the first person or business to file a patent gets to claim the intellectual property as theirs.

What are the basic requirements for an invention to be patentable?

An invention is patentable if it is new, involves an inventive step and is industrially applicable.

Is it advisable for me to conduct a patent search prior to my filing?

Yes, you are strongly recommended to do so in order to determine whether your invention or similar inventions have been patented or are subject to patent application by other proprietors..

Can a Patent protection in Malaysia be extended to other foreign countries?

No. Registration in Malaysia only gives protection in Malaysia because patent protection is territorial in nature. A separate patent application must be filed in every country in which you intend to seek protection within 12 months from the filing date for the first application in Malaysia under the Paris Convention; or 30 months from the filing date under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT).
