The new system will increase competitiveness in intellectual property and innovation in Thai patents, and to generate income for hiring Thai inventors and companies.


泰國商務部智慧財產局局長烏提卡瑞最近宣布會建立與健康,包含藥物、治療、護理和食品有關的專利註冊申請案的快速通道系統,將使專利發明人受益。新的系統將增加泰國智慧財產及發明的競爭力,並為泰國發明人及泰國企業創造收入及聘僱。


Normally, to register a Thai patent application takes about 55 months. However, with the fast-track system, it will take only 24-36 months, as there will be reduction of steps for those urgent patent cases. Since the beginning of COVID-19 till today, there has been 225 Thai patent and petty patent applications related to the treatment and prevention of this virus, which are 61 patents and 164 petty patents respectively. There are178 newly filed requests pending for review, and there are 47 applications that have already been registered for a patent or petty patent.

The initial plan is to focus on specific group to benefit public health and there will be certain restrictions. For example, the purpose for such patents is for commercial or for real businesses. The exact condition, laws and regulations applied to the fast-track system application will be announced within this month.
