What is Patent Registration?A patent registration gives right that is granted to the inventor by the federal government that permits the inventor to exclude others from selling, making or using the invention for a limited period of time. In other words, it is a process to file an application in order to register your invention under the patent Act. It is considered as a monopoly right granted by the government that excludes the others from using, making, selling or importing the patented product or process without prior approval. The patent system is designed to encourage the inventions that are unique and useful to society. A patent is a form of intellectual property that gives the inventor exclusive rights over his inventions. This means that other individuals, firms or organizations cannot use, sell, import or export a particular invention over a particular period of time, under a public disclosure agreement of the particular invention. In most of the countries, patents fall under civil law, but you must note that getting a patent is not an easy task as it offers the highest level of protection. Some of the unique quality of patent includes: 1. Novelty: Novelty is a simple term refers to the "anticipation" that means the patent for which you are registering must not already exist in the market. The absence of novelty must be defined by factors such as public knowledge of the patent, public use of the patent, prior publication of the patent's knowledge and also includes commercialized products and selection inventions. 2. Usefulness: Usefulness of the patent means, it must be a process, medicine, invention or any product which comes into the use of the general public or even in the use of corporates in any possible way. All the patents that have been filed either have to be used in the industries or the use of the general public.
