BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 11. Azerbaijan has
become the first country in Eurasia to register patents, a source
in the Intellectual Property Agency told Trend.
According to the source, the agency, with the support of the
Eurasian Patent Office, has launched the service for electronic
submission of Eurasian application documents.
The source noted that as a result of the pilot project
implemented for the first time in the Eurasian space in Azerbaijan,
this service has been integrated into the Patent Trademark Open
Target electronic information system of the Intellectual Property
Agency, and applicants from Azerbaijan have been provided with the
opportunity to submit Eurasian application documents for inventions
and industrial designs electronically and directly to the Eurasian
Patent Office.
The introduction of a new functional service by the agency
facilitates applicants' applications, significantly reduces the
workload of experts, and accelerates their activities. This
service, integrated into the mentioned system, makes the process of
processing Eurasian application documents faster and more
effective, simplifies legal procedures, allows applicants to assess
their applications more quickly and accurately, eliminates
bureaucratic obstacles, ensures transparency, and boosts the
invention activity. Thus, a more convenient and time-saving working
environment is created for both applicants and experts.
The mentioned service is based on and implemented through the
national Patent Trademark Open Target system, which is accessible
to everyone at any time and from any place, operating 24/7.
The implementation of these innovations in the system once again
confirms Azerbaijan's openness to modern approaches and innovations
in the field of filing international patent application
documents.
