An international application (PCT) is a type of patent application that allows you to seek patent protection in multiple countries by filing a single application.

An international application (PCT) lasts for 30 months from the priority date.

You need to include a written description of your invention, any drawings or diagrams, claims that define the scope of your invention, and an abstract.

Yes, you can file an international application (PCT) without a patent attorney, but it's recommended to work with one to ensure that your application is complete and accurate.

The cost of filing an international application (PCT) varies depending on the complexity of the invention and whether you work with a patent attorney or agent.

After you file your international application (PCT), it will be published and undergo an international search and preliminary examination.

No, you must choose which countries you want to enter the national phase in and file separate applications in each of those countries.

Filing an international application (PCT) can provide you with an early filing date and give you time to further develop your invention before deciding which countries to seek patent protection in.
