How to protect your patent in brazil and abroad: A practical guide for innovative companies

08/1/25

Learn how the patent protection process works in Brazil and abroad, what legal steps are involved, and how to secure exclusivity over your invention.

Investing in innovation without protecting your creation can put your entire competitive advantage at risk. A patent grants exclusive rights of use for up to 20 years, discourages copying, and increases the value of your asset.

In Brazil:

  1. Prior art search
  2. Filing with the INPI
  3. Publication after 18 months
  4. Examination request
  5. Grant of patent

Abroad:

Through the PCT, you can request international protection in dozens of countries with a single application, gaining time and reducing costs.

Risks of not patenting:

  • Losing your invention to competitors
  • Barriers to investment or expansion

  • Technical and legal consulting
  • Drafting of applications
  • Registration in Brazil and via PCT
