Dear inventors & nominators;

here in turkey TUBITAK helps inventors in the process of ePCT but this support is limited with a condition.
the relevant condition states that it would be mandatory to select turkish patent office for preparation of international search report (i.e.: ISA=TR) in order to take full support for ePCT.

but When I contacted to turkish patent office's relevant department, they said that had no information on the issue and also recommended me to contact each patent offices whether they would accept that report in the national phase of ePCT.(ISA=TR,note: we applied to turkish patent office for the application's firs time (Filing)(i.e.: priority claim's language is in turkish)

Now under this thread,I am specifically asking the patent offices which would accept the search report that ISA was TR?

Specific (Target) Offices: IPO and CNIPA.
(These are high potentialities to be selected as entry office in the national phase of ePCT)

Best Regards

Notification: We learnt that IPO did not not accept ISR where ISA = TR.
but have no idea whether CNIPA accepts ISR report where ISA=TR.

Kind Regards
