When applying for an EU patent, the patent application can be assigned to all EU countries by paying the assignment fee of seven countries. However, in order to be protected in various countries, it is necessary to go through the certificate formalities in various countries, and it is important to translate them into languages acceptable to all countries. For example, German must be used in Germany. The cost of applying for a European patent is very expensive. The basic application fee plus the search fee 1 170 euros, the substantive examination fee 1490 euros, and the seven-country designation fee of 560 euros, so the official fee for applying for a European patent is nearly 3,000 euros, but the agency fee for foreign patent lawyers has not been counted, and the domestic agency fee is about 5-. The EU patent objection procedure applicable to all designated contracting States is the only opportunity to invalidate EU patents. If this opportunity is lost, a separate domestic invalidation lawsuit must be filed in different contracting States. EU patents can be challenged within 9 months after authorization. Objections can be raised within 3 months after the German patent is granted, and the patent invalidation fee is quite high. The official fee for a patent that is invalid in Germany is 20,000 euros. However, the utility model has no objection program and its invalid cost is low. What is the process of Henan's application for EU invention patent agency?
