Patent Act (Act No. 121 of 1959) - Latest revision: Act No. 42 of May 21, 2021
1. The revised act is to remove the requirement for licensers to gain consent from parties (licensees) that have received their non-exclusive licences when patent rights are corrected. 2. The revised act is to introduce a new system which allows courts to broadly call for opinions from third parties in litigation involving patent right infringement and to allow patent attorneys to provide consultation services under the system. 3. The revised act is to review the structures of patent and other fees in order to address the growing burden on examinations and digitalized procedures and to attempt to balance revenue and expenditure.
