KIPO and the National Office of Intellectual Property of Vietnam (NOIP) Cooperate in the Area of Intellectual Property Rights

2018/02/09

The conditions for IPR protection in Vietnam will improve by providing a more convenient procedure for Korean companies to acquire patent rights and strengthening protection for K-brands. Commissioner Yunmo Sung from KIPO attended a series of meetings with Director General Dinh Huu Phi from NOIP, Deputy Minister Pham Cong Tac from the Ministry of Science and Technology, Deputy Minister Do Thang Hai from the Ministry of Trade and Industries, and Market Surveillance Agency Director General Trinh Van Ngoc on January 16, 2018 in Hanoi, Vietnam where they agreed to expand IPR cooperation between Korea and Vietnam.


KIPO and the NOIP have agreed to implement the Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) program between the two offices. Under the PPH program, the NOIP can expedite the examination process for patent applications that are deemed "patentable" by making use of the KIPO's examination results. At the same time, this program will help Korean companies acquire patents more quickly.
