    1.3 definition of “certificate of verification”

    A verification of the translation of the international application or of any amendments under PCT Articles 19 or 34 need only be furnished to the Office if the Commissioner specifically requires the applicant to do so. This only occurs if there is a reasonable belief that the translation into English does not accurately reflect the document in its original language. The required certificate of verification of the translation of the international application consists of a simple signed and dated statement, which can be made by any person.

    Errors in the translation of the international application can be corrected with reference to the text of the international application as filed (refer to National Phase, paragraphs NP 6.002 and NP 6.003). This can be done when the applicant becomes aware of an error or omission, or in response to the Commissioner requiring verification of a translation.

    An excess claims fee is payable if the application has more than 20 claims at the first examination report date. The claims for reckoning the fee are not fixed at entry into the national phase but are affected by claims added or removed by amendment of the application up to the first examination report date. If the fee is not paid within one month of the first examination report date, the application lapses. It can be restored at any time before the time limit to have the application accepted, by paying the amount of the excess claims fee, without needing to seek an extension of time.

    A verified translation into English (refer to paragraph AU.01) of any priority document need only be furnished to the Office if the Commissioner specifically requests the applicant to do so. This will only occur when the translation is necessary to determine the validity of the application.
    Verification of the translated priority document is only required to be furnished to the Office if the Commissioner specifically requires the applicant to do so. This only occurs if there is a reasonable belief that the translation into English does not accurately reflect the priority document in its original language. The required certificate of verification of the translation of the priority document consists of a simple signed and dated statement, which can be made by any person.

    If, due to an error or omission on the part of the applicant, their agent or attorney, or due to circumstances beyond the control of the person concerned, the applicant has failed to observe a time limit which is prejudicial to their rights, or the Commissioner is satisfied that the person took due care as required by the circumstances, to ensure the doing of the act within that time, the applicant may request the Office to extend the time limit even though that time has already expired. The request must be presented in writing, and establish the facts on which the request is based in a declaration and also must be accompanied by a fee (for the amount of the fee, refer to Annex AU.I).

    A request for restoration of the right of priority will be treated under national law requirements, at the option of the applicant, as an application for an extension of time on the basis of the relevant act not being done despite due care, not being done due to circumstances beyond the control of the person concerned or because of an error or omission on the part of the person concerned or by their agent or attorney. Fees and other requirements associated with the request vary according to the criterion against which it is made. A request for restoration should be presented in writing, should indicate the criterion against which the request is made and be accompanied by the relevant fee (refer to “Fee for extension of time limit” in Annex AU.I). Preferably it should also be accompanied by a declaration setting out the circumstances and facts on which the request is based.
