An innovation patent provides fast protection. It lasts for up to eight years from the filing date of your application.
An innovation patent may be suitable for an invention with a short market life that might be superseded by newer innovations.
It is suitable for a device, substance, method or process that does not have the inventive step requirement needed in a standard patent application.
To be eligible for an innovation patent your invention must:
involve novelty (be new)
the invention has not been publicly disclosed in any form, anywhere in the world before the earliest priority date (date at which the application is first filed).
involve an innovative step
the invention is different from what is known before and the difference makes a substantial contribution to the working of the invention. An innovative step is different to an inventive step (which is needed for a standard patent).
