Chinese Taipei: Patent database now available for mobiles

[EPO / Asia Info]

Dear users,

The Taiwan Patent Office (TIPO) recently launched a version of its patent search system TWPAT specifically designed for mobile devices. A simplified search interface offers the possibility to search with keywords, numbers and dates in patents, utility models and designs. A more complex interface which allows searches with names and the combination of search fields is also available. In addition to the patent search function, legal status enquiry is possible via the mobile version.

The mobile version can be accessed via a new button on the TWPAT entry pagehttp://twpat.tipo.gov.tw/ or by going straight to the new URLhttp://twpat.tipo.gov.tw/. Currently, the mobile interface is only available in Chinese language.

We are very much interested in your comments or testing observations about this new mobile search tool, so please share them here with other users in our forum. In case of questions, you can also post them here or you can contact us directly at asiainfo@epo.org

Your team for Asian patent information services
