Entering National Phase in Australia

What is required to enter the national phase of a PCT application in Australia?

The Australian national phase generally must be entered within 31 months from the earliest priority date, with certain documents and information required at the time of filing.

Pearce IP’s guide provides a practical summary of the requirements for entering the Australian national phase of a PCT application, including the PCT/WIPO publication number, filing fee, English translation requirements and Australian address for service.

The guide addresses applicant, inventor and priority details, when additional documents or unpublished amendments may need to be provided, and what you need to know about claim amendments and microorganism deposit receipts at national phase entry.

Download the ebook for a practical guide to entering the Australian national phase and understanding the key filing requirements and considerations.
