Patent Application 09
Patent Application 09 : Types of Applications: (2) Provisional Applications: Provisional patent applications can be filed at many patent offices, such as the USPTO in the U. S. A provisional application provides an opportunity to place an application on file to obtain a filing date (thereby securing a priority date), but without the expense and complexity of a standard patent application. The disclosure in a provisional application may, within a limited time (one year in the U. S). , be incorporated into a standard patent application if a patent is to be pursued. Otherwise, the provisional application expires. No enforceable rights can be obtained solely through the filing of a provisional application
