With PatLegal Online, integrated in our PATWWW Portal, you have direct access to the INPADOC PFS and PRS data of more than 65 Patent Offices worldwide. 

The PFS database brings together patent publications with similar claims from a wide range of countries. The publications are sorted into "families", so that the user can find out in what countries a patent for a given invention has been applied for or granted. This makes it easier for companies to monitor strategies of their competitors and to determine the countries in which the invention is not protected and can therefore be freely used.

The PRS is a legal status database which shows whether a particular patent is still valid or has expired. This facilitates the exploitation of inventions which are no longer protected and ensures that users do not pay unnecessary licence fees for lapsed patents. All legal status changes, before and after grant, are listed.

Detailed information is offered by our PDF-printable product information.
