Following the news announcing the implementation of electronic filing of patent applications, the Patent Office in Bahrain is starting substantive examination of pending applications. Whereas there has been no official notice in this regard, we will be notifying our clients should the examination reports become available.
Any change in the examination procedures and related official fees is expected to be further outlined in implementing regulations that should be forthcoming.
