General Information on the Eurasian patent organization
The Eurasian patent office of the Eurasian patent organization is an
intergovernmental and international organization based on the Eurasian
Patent Convention (EAPC). The EAPO provides services for protection of
intellectual and industry property granting the Eurasian patents after
consideration of received applications for different types of inventions.
By now, the EAPO has registered more than 50000 patents in the Register of
the Eurasian patents that covers the territory of all Contracting States* of
the Eurasian Patent Convention, after paying all initial and
annual maintenance fees .
It is important to mention that Moldova also used to be a member of the Eurasian
Patent Convention, but recently deposited a notification of
denunciation of the Eurasian Patent Convention that took effect on
April 26, 2012.
However, this denunciation has no effect for granted Eurasian patents
and conventional or PCT applications containing designation of the
Republic of Moldova for a Eurasian patent filed before April 26, 2012.
Therefore, if the application with the filing date earlier than
April 26, 2012 enters the Eurasian regional phase, the Eurasian patent
issued in respect of such application may be valid in Moldova provided
that annuities are paid for said country. If the PCT application was
filed on or after April 26, 2012 for obtaining protection in Moldova
it is necessary to enter the Moldavian national phase separately.
