Provisional or Complete filing?

Provisional filing is ideal for early stage inventions where securing a filing date and time to refine is crucial but complete application cost or details are not yet feasible. Complete filing is best for inventions nearing launch or with complex details requiring robust protection and examination to ensure long term exclusivity. Ultimately the choice depends on your invention stage and specific needs. Here are few pros and cons.


Provisional is faster and cheaper to file. Less information is required compared to a complete application. You can establish an early filing date, you can test market interest, and refine the invention. You can limit the disclosure. You can protect the core concept without revealing full details.


No examination by the patent office and not guaranteed patent grant. Claims cannot be as robust and have limited protection scope compared to complete application Full application must be filed within one year: Failure to do so forfeits your priority date When you do a complete filing, you have stronger claims and broader protection: Increased defense against potential infringements. Higher chance of patent grant since it is thoroughly examined by patent office. You have longer term protection and exclusive rights for up to twenty years upon granted. You have no time pressure for full application: More flexibility for development and market research.

Frequently Asked Questions

A patent is a legal right granted to an inventor or applicant by a government authority, typically for a specified period. It provides exclusive rights to the inventor, preventing others from making, using, or selling their invention without permission. Patents are granted for new and inventive products, processes, or methods that are useful and have industrial applicability. They encourage innovation by offering inventors protection and the opportunity to commercially exploit their inventions.

A patent grants exclusive rights to inventors:
- Exclusive rights to the invention
- Ability to commercialize it
- Legal protection for enforcement
- Limited duration (typically 20 years)

Patent rights are not universal. Each country has its own patent system. International agreements like the PCT help simplify the process.
