Frequently Asked Questions
Is Copying a Patent Illegal?
Yes, copying a patented invention without the patent holder’s permission is illegal. Patents grant exclusive rights of products and technologies to the inventor for a set period, typically 20 years. Infringing on these rights—by making, using, selling, or distributing the invention—can lead to legal penalties, including fines and injunctions.
What is a Patent Translation?
A patent translation is a specialised translation of patent documents—such as a claim, data, description, and abstract—into another language for filing or enforcement in foreign jurisdictions. These translations must be technically accurate and legally compliant with the requirements of the target country’s IP office.
How Do I Know If My Translation Service Is Certified?
A certified UK translation service should:
- Provide a signed Certificate of Accuracy.
- Employ translators with relevant credentials or memberships (e.g., ITI, CIOL).
- Follow ISO-certified translation processes (like ISO 17100).
- You can ask for proof of past filings or accepted translations by IP offices.
As a premium patent translation provider, we match it all. Therefore, translate patent for all office action translations from us for 100% authority compliance.
How Much Do Patents Cost in the UK?
Filing a patent in the UK can cost between £4,000 and £20,000, depending on complexity, legal support, and international protection. Translation costs may add to the total if filing in multiple countries. The UK Intellectual Property Office (UKIPO) charges modest fees, but professional drafting and translation make up the bulk of the expense.
How Do You Translate a Patent?
Patent translation involves:
- Understanding the technical field of the invention
- Using consistent terminology throughout the document
- Adhering to legal and formatting rules of the target IP office
- Having the final translation reviewed by legal and technical experts
- The translator must preserve the meaning without altering the patent’s scope.
What are the UK Government Approved Translation Services?
While the UK government doesn’t maintain a public list of “approved” services, it accepts translations from:
- Certified translators (often members of CIOL or ITI)
- Sworn or notarised translators for legal filings
- Patent translation companies that provide certified translations with a signed declaration
- Always check with the UKIPO or relevant authorities for their current requirements.
