Patents Act 1977, Section 23.

Yes, filing restrictions apply to:

Applications by residents

In most cases, a United Kingdom resident may file an application direct at the European Patent Office or at the International Bureau of WIPO. However, restrictions apply where the application contains information which relates to military technology or which might be prejudicial to United Kingdom national security or the safety of the public. In these cases, a United Kingdom resident may only file such an application direct at the European Patent Office or at the International Bureau of WIPO: (i) after having obtained written authorization from the Office; or (ii) after an application for a patent for the same invention has been filed at the Office and not less than six weeks have elapsed without the Comptroller of the Office giving a direction prohibiting publication or communication of the invention. These restrictions do not apply to an application for a patent for an invention for which an application for a patent has first been filed in a country outside the United Kingdom by a person resident outside the United Kingdom.

[MT] 사무실에서 허용하는 결제 방법 :

The payment of fees must be effected in pounds sterling. All payments must be made together with the filing of the form related to the fee to be paid, and indicate the application number (national, if already known; international, if the national application number is not yet known), the name of the applicant and the type of the fee being paid.

The Office does not accept bank card payments for international patent fees (except for the transmittal fee). Details are available at Intellectual Property Office: how to pay us - https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/intellectual-property-office-how-to-pay-us

Fees may be paid by any of the following means:
— by certain types of credit/debit card;
— by cheque drawn on a UK clearing bank;
— by debit to a client deposit account held by the Office;
— by direct bank-to-bank transfer to:

For the credit of the Intellectual Property Office (United Kingdom) account 80531766; in cash at the Office.

Fees paid by a cheque expressed in pounds sterling are regarded as being paid on the day of receipt of the cheque in the Office. Where cheques expressed in other currencies are received, there will be a delay while realisation into pounds sterling takes place (also, owing to currency fluctuations, an underpayment could result); it is therefore recommended that pound sterling cheques only should be paid. Cheques should be made payable to “UK Intellectual Property Office.” Fees paid by bank-to-bank transfer are regarded as being received at the date on which the bank credits the money to the Intellectual Property Office (United Kingdom) account 80531766; however, bank-to-bank transfers are likely to incur bank charges which may result in underpayment of fees. These must be met by the applicant and therefore should be covered in the applicant’s instruction to the bank. The application/renewal documents relating to the payment of fees should be supported by a Fee Sheet or equivalent form listing individual fees. A reference (e.g., patent or deposit account number) should be quoted to link payment with any forms sent separately; this is essential when a bank-to-bank transfer is made.

Where the designation is made for the purposes of a national patent:

Refer to Sections 89, 89A and 89B of the Patents Act 1977. The publication of the international application in English by the International Bureau of WIPO, or of the translation into English by the Intellectual Property Office5 (United Kingdom), gives the applicant generally the same right as he would have had, if the patent had been granted on the date of publication of the application or of the translation, to bring proceedings in the court or before the Comptroller for damages in respect of any act which would have infringed a patent. However, such proceedings may only be brought after grant of the patent. Section 89B(3), in addition, gives effect to the option specified in PCT Article 29(2)(iii)

Where the designation is made for the purposes of a European patent:

Refer to Sections 78(7) and 79(3) of the Patents Act 1977

(1) International application published in English: the right referred to above applies once the application has been published by the International Bureau of WIPO

(2) International application published in French or German: the right referred to in paragraph (1) does not become effective until a translation into English of the claims has been filed at, and published by, the Intellectual Property Office (United Kingdom) and the prescribed fee paid, or unless the applicant has supplied the infringer, before the infringing act occurred, with a translation into English of the claims

(3) International application published in a language which is not an EPO official language: the right referred to above does not become effective until the EPO republishes the international application supplied to it in one of its official languages except that if the EPO republishes the application in French or German, paragraph (2) applies

A patent will be granted only after examination as to patentability, which must be requested by the applicant. The request for substantive examination must be made on Patents Form 10.

The Office’s combined search and examination procedure for applications on which Patents Forms 9A and 10 are filed together does not apply to applications entering the national phase where an international search report has been established. The time limits for requesting substantive examination and the required fee are as stated in the Summary. A reduced examination fee is payable when Patents Form 10 is filed electronically. If the application includes more than 35 pages of description, an excess pages fee of GBP 10 per page is also payable with the Form 10.

The Office may request the applicant to furnish a translation into English of any document referred to in the international search report or international preliminary report on patentability or cited in the international preliminary examination report. Such a translation must be filed within two months of the date of the request. There is no form for the furnishing of the translation. This time limit of two months may be extended by the Office if it thinks fit; a request for an extension should be made in writing (there is no form for this purpose) and may be made even when the two-month time limit has already expired.

After a patent has been granted, a fee must be paid for maintaining the patent in force, starting with the fifth year counted from the international filing date. Payment must be made each year during the period of three full calendar months which ends on the last day of the month in which the filing date falls. Payment can still be made, together with a surcharge, during a further period of six full months. Where a patent is granted in the last three months of the fourth year, or later, the renewal fee may be paid without surcharge by the end of the third calendar month after the date of grant or, with a surcharge, within six months from the end of these three months. The amounts of the renewal fees and of the surcharge are indicated in Annex GB.I. Form 12 must be filed (refer to also paragraph GB.21).

The applicable procedure is outlined in paragraphs NP 6.018 to NP 6.021 of the National Phase. (The Patents Act also includes a similar procedure for which application may be made at any time by writing to the Office with a statement of the facts relied on and paying any fee indicated in Annex GB.I.)

If, upon review under PCT Article 25, the Office finds that the refusal to accord a filing date or declaration that the international application is considered withdrawn was not the result of an error or omission on the part of the receiving Office or the International Bureau, the applicant may ask for a hearing, if he wishes to contest the Office’s view; if the hearing (which the applicant is not obliged to attend in person) maintains the Office’s view, a reasoned written decision will be issued. An appeal may be lodged against such a decision in the Patents Court within 28 days from the decision; it must be accompanied by the related fee indicated in Annex GB.I. An application to extend the 28 day time limit must be made direct to the Court.
