According to the State Intellectual Property Office, according to the joint decision of the State Intellectual Property Office of China and the Singapore Intellectual Property Office, the Sino-Singapore Patent Examination Expressway pilot project will be extended for five years from September 1, 2026, until August 31, 2031. As long as the application has the same earliest date as the corresponding application, you can request participation in the pilot project. PPH is a rapid patent examination channel between different countries or regions, and the patent examination process is accelerated through work sharing between patent examination agencies. Since launching the first PPH pilot in November 2011, the State Intellectual Property Office of China has successively established PPH cooperation mechanisms with patent examination agencies in 38 countries or regions, providing effective support for Chinese applicants to quickly obtain authorization for overseas patent applications.
