Finding your local patent number

Annuity payments in some jurisdictions require the local patent number (national filing number). We request this information during your validations and store them on our platform. Here, we'll tell you where to find them

The easiest and quickest way to locate the local patent number for a jurisdiction is to navigate to the "Summary" page of your instruction. The "Summary" page can be found on every case. 

Steps

  1. First find your case

  2. Navigate to "Summary" (if you have searched for your case using the search bar you will land here by default)

  3. Underneath your list of "Orders", you will find "Orders Data" (as seen below)

  4. A pop-up appears. "Orders Data" provides a host of information and where relevant, the local filing number.

🗒️Note

Not all jurisdictions generate a local filing number or retain the EP number. Below is a list of jurisdictions that are known to generate one.
