To validate a European patent in the Czech Republic, it is necessary to submit the required translation to the Czech Industrial Property Office (Czech IPO) and pay the official validation fee.
The formal requirements include filing the Czech translation of the specification and patent claims, ensuring that all mandatory documents are complete, and settling the corresponding fee.
It is also essential to ensure that the translation is submitted within 3 months from the date of the European patent grant, as required by Czech law.
Yes — in countries outside the Unitary Patent system (e.g., CZ, SK, PL), validation must be carried out individually in each state.
However, in participating EU member states, we can secure protection via the Unitary Patent, which replaces individual national validations with a single, unified right.
For EP validation in Czech Republic, it is required to provide:
-
Czech translation of specification and claims,
-
Power of Attorney for a local representative
-
Proof of payment of the validation fee
