EP Grant and Validation
Simplified European validation services
European patent grant and validation formalities can be complex, expensive and time consuming. Our comprehensive service saves money and streamlines the process. Whenever you receive the Intention to Grant communication (rule 71(3)), we manage translation, claims filing and grant fees payments activities with our preferred EP partners. We will then monitor for the Decision to Grant and, with a single instruction from you, validate your patent with our preferred EP partners[1]. Our admin expert team manages the formalities and any necessary translations for the countries you choose. After EP validation, we will forward you all patent office notifications at no extra cost. We can also take care of patent annuities and recordals. With Questel, European patents are that much easier.
