Main features

The Austrian Patent Office has over 110 years' experience of granting patents following search and substantive examination. In addition to granting national patents, we also act as a PCT authority (ISA/IPEA). Our highly skilled and experienced patent examiners perform high-quality searches. We normally supply search reports within four weeks, but can arrange significantly faster delivery times in urgent cases.
