Why are patent maintenance annuities important?
Patent maintenance annuities are annual fees that must be paid by a patent owner to keep the patent and its exclusive rights in force. Timely payment helps ensure protection remains valid throughout the patent term.
Legal Compliance
Under Indonesian Patent Law No. 13 of 2016, patent owners are required to pay maintenance fees to preserve patent validity.
Avoid Lapse
Delay or failure to pay annuities can cause the patent to lapse.
