Application Priority DataBack to list

Canada is a signatory to international treaties and conventions which grant similar rights throughout many countries. An applicant may use the filing date of a previously filed application as the effective filing date of subject matter in a later filed Canadian application provided that:

1. the previously filed application was filed in Canada or in a country recognized by Canada through treaty or convention for the purpose of priority claims;
2. the previously filed application contains subject matter found in the later filed application; and
3. the later filed application is filed within 12 months of the previously filed application.

This field gives the priority application(s) related to the Canadian application. The order of appearance is: priority number, priority country and priority date.

A patent document may have multiple priorities. Only the earliest priority is searchable but all priorities will be displayed.
