Contract partnership
We perform searches and examinations in the patent area for other patent offices around the world within all fields of technology.
What all patent authories have in common is that the right they grant is national, but the search for prior art is global. Therefore, the search does not necessarily have to be performed by the local national authority.
We have specialized in performing searches and examinations for other patent offices. For this purpose, we make our highly technically qualified examiners availiable. Our patent case-processing procedures are ISO 9000 certified.
We have developed skills in conforming to the national requests and the rules that apply in the countries of our contract partners. Our work is in each case based on an individual contract between us and the relevant foreign patent office. Each contract sets its own standards for quality, delivery time etc.
Currently, we perform searches and examinations for Iceland, Singapore, Turkey and the UK. When the Nordic Patent Institute begins its work as PCT authority from 1 January 2008, we will also perform searches and examininations on behalf of this PCT authority.
If your office is interested in having such searches and examinations done by the DKPTO, please do not hesitate to contact Keld Nymann Jensen, Deputy Director General, COO, or Anne Rejnhold Jorgensen, Director of International Affairs, for further details. Keld Nymann Jensen can be contacted by e-mail to knj@dkpto.dk or by phone: +45 43 50 81 30. Anne Rejnhold Jorgensen can be contacted by e-mail to arj@dkpto.dk or by phone: +45 43 50 83 85.
